The 13th annual Fred Ebb Award was awarded to singer-songwriter Shaina Taub on November 27 in New York City. The award is given each year to an outstanding musical theatre songwriter.

The award was presented to Taub by Tony Award winner Brian Stokes Mitchell in a private ceremony at the American Airlines Theatre. The award “recognizes excellence in musical theatre songwriting, by a songwriter or songwriting team that has not yet achieved significant commercial success. The award is meant to encourage and support aspiring songwriters to create new works for the musical theatre.”
