Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Fight Choreography
The Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Fight Choreography is an annual award presented by Drama Desk in recognition of achievements in fight choreography in theatre across collective Broadway, off-Broadway and off-off-Broadway productions in New York City.
