There's a nice circularity to this solo show winning the 2019 Lucille Lortel Award. It went on to inspire a BBC series, but not before Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s show had it's Off-Broadway premiere at Soho Playhouse. A character from that series is on the stage now, at the Lortel Theatre... guess who?

The 2014 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Achievement: Best Musical goes to... a poignant coming-of-age story based on a memoir by Alison Bechdel, Fun Home. Adapted for stage, music by Jeanine Tesori, Lyrics & Book by Lisa Kron.

We're just hours away from the 2025 Lucille Lortel Awards. Trivia question: Who won the 2011 Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical? Hint: it centers on the life of a certain (ahem) controversial American President from the past. The far past.

Around this time in 2007, Lucille Lortel Awards voters grappled with the decision over Best Musical. Off-Broadway had delivered us two darlings, In the Heights and Spring Awakening. The result? A tie, naturally!

Time flies when you're in your 40th Awards season. Let's pop back to 2004, when Caroline, or Change received the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical. With music by Jeanine Tesori and lyrics and book by Tony Kushner, it must have been amazing to see the Off-Broadway premiere at The Public Theater.

The Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical, 2003 coincided with the sequencing of the Human Genome (only with 99.99% accuracy, mind you). We're willing to admit with 100% accuracy that Avenue Q had us humming "What do you do with a B.A. in English?" all. year. long.😍

Looking back at 40 yrs of Lucille Lortel Awards does make us wistful for 1996, when we were lining up to buy the first flip phone. Maybe, instead, you were seeing Catherine Byrne & Alfred Molina in Molly Sweeney at the Roundabout? Molly Sweeney, Lucille Lortel Award for Best Play, 1996.

1994, Edward Albee's Three Tall Women received the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Play. Incredible performances by Jordan Baker, Myra Carter and the resplendent Marian Seldes starred in this Off-Broadway debut.

In 1991, the Hubble Telescope was launched into space. Meanwhile, we were stargazing too... this star was 1991 Best Musical, Falsettoland! Books & Lyrics by William Finn, American composer and lyricist, who recently passed this year on April 7.
