Critics’ Circle Theatre Awards winners are the most diverse ever by DredieMann
The prize for Best Actor went to Hamilton alum Terera, who delivered not one but two masterful performances this year in Othello at the National Theatre, and as Guy in Blues for an Alabama Sky. The director of the latter, Linton, won Best Director, her lyrical and light-footed staging of Pearl Cleage’s play, a riveting rendition of the Harlem renaissance’s dying days.
Williams, who was also honoured this year with the 53rd George Devine Award, was recognised by critics for his playful and poetic use of language, and his centring of experiences that have been historically underrepresented on stage.In a historic first, two of the acting gongs were awarded to performers with disabilities.
In attendance at the ceremony were many of this year’s winners, among them Peter Morgan, Terera and Patsy Ferran.They celebrated alongside awards presenters and guests including actors Paul Mescal, Gethin Anthony, Juliet Stevenson, Tracey-Ann Oberman, Joanna Vanderham, and leading directors such as Rufus Norris.
