>> The sell-out productions were hailed as evidence that we are living through a new golden age of Shakespeare, although the starry casting was also a factor - Hiddleston was besieged by adoring fans each night as he left the theatre, and a security guard was posted at the stage door to marshal excitable females. > Women dominate the best director category, with Maria Friedman (Merrily We Roll Along), Susan Stroman (The Scottsboro Boys) and Lyndsey Turner (Chimerica) competing with Richard Eyre for his staging of Ghosts glad to see some love for SCOTTSBORO BOYS >> But it is musicals that lead the way, with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the revival of Stephen Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along scoring seven apiece.
