Outer Critics Circle, the organization of writers covering New York theatre for out-of-town newspapers, national publications and other media beyond Broadway, is proud to report that Multi Award-winning stars Lily Rabe and Richard Thomas will announce the nominees for the 2011-12 season on Monday, April 23rd (11AM) at The Friars Club (57 East 55th Street- between Park and Madison Avenues).

Outer Critics Circle will post award nominations in 23 categories and are the first major Broadway/Off-Broadway award nominees of the New York theater season.
