The EPAC Devin Spears Memorial Award was established to honor the memory of Devin Spears, a member of the EPAC Kids Theater Workshop who starred as Dorothy in the workshop's 2001 production of "The Wiz". Devin and her mother Valerie were tragically killed in 2002.

"It's just another way that illustrates how community theater helps make our community a better place to live. Our heartiest congratulations go out to the recipients."
