Awards season is here again! Just like in the previous years, the Meteoriks awards set out to honour the best productions of the year 2022. Over the course of the next weeks, our jurors will wade through last year's productions and choose up to five nominees for each category. And you can help them by making sure your personal favourites are not overlooked! Until 23:59 on Sunday, January 29, you can suggest any production of 2022 to our juries directly from Demozoo - just head to the production's page and click "Recommend this production".
