National Picks Up 20 Olivier Nominations

London’s National Theatre was “showered with 20 nominations” for Olivier Awards. It’s a tribute to departing director Trevor Nunn, who’s reign at5 the National has been controversial. Still, “Nunn himself has very oddly been overlooked for best director despite pulling the strings on Tom Stoppard’s trilogy The Coast of Utopia, A Streetcar Named Desire with Glenn Close and the ecstatically received musical Anything Goes.”
