Arizona Theater Company Artistic Director Sean Daniels, whose personal battle with alcoholism was chronicled in his Off-Broadwayautobiographical play, “The White Chip,” was scheduled to receive the 10,000 Beds Spirit of Gratitude Award at the 4th annual Gratitude Gala: Celebrating Recovery, which was to be held at the Pheonix Art Museum. The museum has closed through April 6 in response to COVID-19. The mission of 10,000 Beds is to connect individuals seeking help for addiction to vetted treatment programs; it partners with addiction-treatment programs nationwide and provides scholarships to applicants who want and need help but are without resources. “The White Chip” was ATC’s first Off-Broadway production in 20 years and was a New York Times Critic’s Choice.
