Acceptance Speech
“Thank you. It’s so nice to be standing on stage in clothes and not a pink thong. Although that is lovely too, trousers are so much more comfortable, believe me. I just would like to start by – gosh, these things are always so much more emotional than you think they are going to be, I hate it. Okay. I would like to start by thanking all my friends and family because, I am sure as many of you know, when you play a role like this in a big musical, it kind of dominates your life. So this is my public apology to all my friends for my constant vocal rest and having the social life of a slug. In fact, I think slugs have probably had more fun than me, but it is completely worth it because this role has been totally amazing and wonderful. And I would like to thank my wonderful agents, Caroline and Claire and Wendy. I would like to thank everyone at Really Useful and Back Row and all the producers, cast, crew, Tony and Jason who are just amazing to work with. But, mainly, of course, the fans because they have been voting for me and they have been supporting me non-stop and they have made it a really special year so it really belongs to you. Thank you.” - Oliver Thornton
