Hosted by Lenny Henry, The Olivier Awards ceremony took place at London’s Royal Opera House on Sunday night.
Two special awards were also handed out, to groundbreaking dancer Sylvie Guillem and Kevin Spacey.
Dame Judi Dench presented Spacey with his award, given in recognition of his tenure as artistic director at The Old Vic theatre.
“`I love that theatre more than I can begin to express to you,” he said, before he closed the ceremony with a performance of the Simon and Garfunkel song Bridge Over Troubled Water, which he sang with singer and Memphis star Beverley Knight.
