Last night, May 23, the Drama Desk Association hosted the 55th Annual Drama Desk Awards ceremony at the F.H. LaGuardia Concert Hall at Lincoln Center. Former Drama Desk Award winner Patti LuPone hosted the ceremony, which honored the best of Broadway and off in the 2009-2010 season. BroadwayWorld.com provided LIVE coverage on the site throughout the ceremony.
La Cage, Memphis, Red, Fences and A View From the Bridge took home top honors for best original and revival productions. Christopher Fitzgerlad, Katie Finneran, Viola Davis and Santino Fontana took home top honors for best featured performances, while Liev Schreiber, Douglas Hodge and Jan Maxwell received honors for best leading performances.
In a surprise twist, the Drama Desk honored both Montego Glover (Memphis) and Catherine Zeta-Jones (A Little Night Music) with coveted award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical.
