Amelia Bullimore and Elizabeth Kuti are joint winners of the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and will share the prize money, receiving $6,000 each. The panel were unable to separate the two into winner ($10,000) and special commendation ($2,000).

Bullimore was honoured for her play Mammals, produced at the Bush last year and currently on tour, and Kuti for The Sugar Wife, produced by Rough Magic at the Soho.
