The SHAPE Players Performing Arts School's production of Shrek Jr. took home six TOPPERS including Best Family Show at the 2015 Installation Management Command Europe Tournament of Plays and the Vogelweh Armstrong Club in Germany, April 25.
In addition, Dan LaMorte won a TOPPER for Best Set Design for a Play for SHAPE Players "Scenes from and American Life."
The annual TOPPERS award is the Army in Europe's version of the Broadway Tony Awards and the show organizers pulled out all the stops to make this year's show something special. The crowd and nominees were treated to guest presentations via recorded video by the likes of William Shatner (Capt. Kirk), Chris Pine (Capt. Kirk), Daniel Radcliff (Harry Potter), Kristin Chenoweth (Glenda the Good Witch from Wicked on Broadway), and more.
And the winners are:
