Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Orchestrations
The Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Orchestrations is an annual award presented by Drama Desk in recognition of achievements in the theatre among Broadway, Off Broadway and Off-Off Broadway productions. This category was eliminated with the 2011–12 season, only to be reinstated about a week later due to popular and overwhelming demand from much of the Broadway community.
