BWW:UK Awards 2014: MISS SAIGON Sweeps The Board!

Miss Saigon flew into the West End once more this year - and the new production has swept the board at the 2014 BWW:UK Awards.

Eva Noblezada, Kwang-Ho Hong, Jon-Jon Briones and Rachelle Ann Go all picked up prizes for their individual performances - and Carolyn Maitland got Best Understudy for her role as Ellen.

Boublil and Schoenberg's other mega-musical wasn't without its fans, though - Carrie Hope Fletcher took Best Performance in a Long-Running Show.

Urinetown - closing at the Apollo in January - won Best New Musical, with Shakespeare in Love taking Best New Play.

The Crucible won the plaudits for the straight drama categories, with Richard Armitage, Samantha Colley and Adrian Schiller taking the awards. Anna Madeley has to share Best Leading Actress in a Play, though - with Gillian Anderson, recognised for her performance in A Streetcar Named Desire.
