The Fountain Theatre in Hollywood and Donald Margulies' "The Country House" at the Geffen Playhouse were among the big winners Sunday evening at the 2014 annual Ovation Awards, which honor excellence in Los Angeles theater.

Sunday's ceremony at the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse was hosted by actresses Kate Burton and Katie Lowes.

The Fountain won the award for best season for its productions seen during the 2013-14 period. The Hollywood company won in the same category at the 2010 awards.

The awards for play and musical at large theaters went to the Geffen's "The Country House," currently running on Broadway, and the recent production of "Floyd Collins" at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts, respectively.

In all, the awards were fairly spread out, with the Geffen, Skylight Theatre Company and Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts receiving four awards each.

The acting honors included Malcolm Barrett for his lead role in "The Recommendation" from the IAMA Theatre Company and Deborah Strang for a revival of "Come Back, Little Sheba" at A Noise Within.

James Barbour won for his role as Jean Valjean in a revival of "Les Misérables" at La Mirada, while "MADTv" alumna Nicole Parker won for her lead role in 3-D Theatricals' production of "Funny Girl" that ran at the Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center.
