| There was a time I believe when Best Actor and Actress in both a musical and play prompted people to buy tickets to check out the award winner, at least when tickets were reasonably affordable. Sometimes supporting as well, if they were a sensational breakout star like Gwen Verdon in "Can-Can", for example. For a while when there were some really great choreographers on Broadway, the winner of the Best Choreography award also sold tickets. |
