Helen Mirren, Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Play, THE AUDIENCE
"It is a honor to be nominated and to become a part of the grand tradition of American theatre. I am very lucky that I speak American! Albeit in the play with a very British accent. It is a very exciting season on Broadway, with many great plays, musicals, and performances, so just to be a part of that is a thrill."
