The New York Drama Critics’ Circle voted today on its annual awards. They are:
• BEST PLAY: The Night Alive, by Conor McPherson
• BEST AMERICAN PLAY: All the Way, by Robert Schenkkan (I voted for Family Furniture, by A.R. Gurney)
• BEST MUSICAL: Fun Home, by Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori (I voted for Nobody Loves You, by Itamar Moses and Gaby Alter)
We also voted to award special citations to the Shakespeare’s Globe productions of Twelfth Night and Richard III and playwright-director Richard Nelson and the company of The Apple Family Plays (I didn’t vote for either citation).
The links are to my Wall Street Journal reviews of the shows.
