Leon Sinden Awards

Leon Sinden Awards

The Leon Sinden Awards are given to two actors for ‘The Best Supporting Performance’ at Pitlochry Festival Theatre. According to Leon’s own rules each Award is for a specific supporting performance and is not for the body of work by a particular Actor over the summer season.

Leon Sinden created the Awards in 1995 marking 30 years since his first performance at Scotland’s Theatre in the Hills in 1965.

Voting for the Awards is entirely in the hands of you the audience.

The 2024 Award winners were announced on 28 September after the performance of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical which was the last show of the summer season. The awards went to Luke Thornton and David Rankine. Luke for his performance as Willard in Footloose and David for his multi-role performance in Nan Shepherd: Naked and Unashamed.
