Tony nominee Jenn Colella and Obie winner Mia Barron hosted the 10th annual Lilly Awards at the Minetta Lane Theatre May 19. The event, which celebrates women of distinction in the American theatre, honored LaTanya Richardson Jackson (To Kill A Mockingbird), Glenda Jackson (King Lear), composer and lyricist team Gretchen Cryer and Nancy Ford (I’m Getting My Act Together and Taking It on the Road), and Julia Cho (Office Hour).
Created in 2010 by Julia Jordan, Marsha Norman, and Theresa Rebeck, The Lilly Awards Foundation works year round to celebrate the work of women in theatre and advocate gender parity at all levels of production.
