To give recognition to distinguished local theatre productions, facilitate exchange among theatre critics, as well as to give a more forward-looking definition of Hong Kong theatre, the International Association of Theatre Critics (Hong Kong) has presented the IATC(HK) Critics Awards (the Awards) since 2016. From 1 January to 31 December 2022, all theatre productions showcased publicly in Hong Kong — including premieres and re-runs — will be included in the list of assessment for the Awards.
