The Brits faced criticism for not nominating women in gender-neutral category but women reign in theatre awards chosen by public
Women have dominated the gender-neutral performing categories at this year’s WhatsOnStage awards, the only major theatre awards decided by the public.
At a ceremony at the Prince of Wales Theatre in London on Sunday night, Jodie Comer received the award for best performer in a play for her solo tour de force in Prima Facie, while Courtney Bowman and Lauren Drew won best performer in a musical and best supporting performer in a musical respectively for Legally Blonde.
