Black BoxTheatre troupe Black Box Communications ham it up after receiving their bogus Virtuoso Award during the June 22 gala.

The actors brought a lively new twist to IABC's annual awards banquet by staging a murder mystery and a song and dance routine performed by Elvis during the evening's proceedings.

The real winners of the evening were the communicators and designers who picked up IABC and RGD awards. See the list below.
