In the meantime, if you fancy doing some nominating of your own, the WhatsOnStage.com Theatregoers' Choice Awards are accepting nominations for who should be shortlisted for their annual awards.

Slinger was robbed! How completely and utterly depressing.
Tell me about it. :( I mean, it was a bloody good year for plays, so it's not like the Best Actor category isn't still filled with brilliant actors, but still; Slinger was longlisted for playing in TWO award-worthy plays, turning in MORE than award-worthy performances. It doesn't seem right that the rest of the world doesn't get how incredible he is. :(
