“Dear Evan Hansen,” “Fiddler on the Roof” and “Death of a Salesman” were among the plays and musical familiar to American audiences whose recent British productions won 2020 Olivier Awards, which are the UK equivalent of the Tony Awards.
Below is the full list of nominees and winners (marked with an asterisk), and the two videos of the ceremony — a 38-minute so-called “pre-show” and a 80-minute main show.
It’s worth noting that Sharon D. Clarke, the winner for Best Actress for Death of a Salesman, was scheduled to make her Broadway debut this season in “Caroline, or Change.”
We are truly honoured. Thank you from the entire Dear Evan Hansen family. We can’t wait to perform for our UK audiences again. #OlivierAwards #DEHLondon pic.twitter.com/Xg91fhjOhj
