Tom Hiddleston, Jenna Coleman, Sheila Atim and David Tennant are among the stars celebrating London’s stage talent at the 67th Evening Standard Theatre Awards on Sunday.
They will be at the event at Claridge’s joining Tuppence Middleton, Omari Douglas, Layton Williams, Hayley Atwell, Jake Shears and his Cabaret co-star Rebecca Lucy Taylor, AKA Self Esteem, among others, to hand out awards.
The event, hosted by the newspaper’s proprietor Lord Lebedev with the help of Ian McKellen, is presented by Susan Wokoma. The writer and actor, who played Edith in the Enola Holmes films and whose stage work includes appearances at the Bush, the National and the Royal Court, is about to start work on Three Weeks which she will direct and star in.
She said: “Theatre is always a labour of love and London stages have faced their fair share of difficulties in the last few years. So I think it’s paramount we celebrate excellence while we can.”
Among the awards presented on the night are best play, best actor and the Milton Shulman Award for best director which is named after the Standard’s late theatre critic. Other awards include the Natasha Richardson Award for best actress in association with Mithridate and the Charles Wintour Award for most promising playwright — named in honour of the paper’s editor for many years.
Also awarded on the night is the Lebedev Award, which is given to an individual or institution for lifetime achievement or a specific critically-acclaimed piece of work or series as well as two special Editor’s Awards.
Among those in the running are Paul Mescal, shortlisted for best actor for his role in A Streetcar Named Desire, with his co-stars Anjana Vasan and Patsy Ferran up for best actress. Mescal is up against Andrew Scott, who won in 2019 and is shortlisted for Vanya, as well as Paapa Essiedu for The Effect, and Mark Gatiss for The Motive and the Cue. The shortlist for best actress is completed by Rachael Stirling for Private Lives and Sophie Okonedo for Medea.
Also in the running is Nicole Scherzinger for Sunset Boulevard. She is nominated for best musical performance along with Charlie Stemp in Crazy For You, Kyle Ramar Freeman in A Strange Loop and Marisha Wallace in Guys & Dolls.
James Graham’s Dear England is shortlisted for best play alongside Jack Thorne’s The Motive and the Cue, Sam Holcroft’s A Mirror and Ryan Calais Cameron’s Retrogade.
Previous winners at the awards, which were first presented in 1955, include Dame Judi Dench, Dame Maggie Smith, Ralph Fiennes, Laurence Olivier, Benedict Cumberbatch, Gillian Anderson and Glenn Close.

On this day, September 29, 1959, The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis aired on CBS at 8:30PM. Today marks the 62nd anniversary of our beloved television show! Let’s cherish this day by remembering our favorite Dobie Gillis episodes/moments. None of this would be possible without Max Shulman, who would’ve been 102 on this day. May his memory be a blessing.
We also celebrate Dwayne Hickman, Bob Denver, Frank Faylen, Florida Friebus, Sheila James Kuehl, Steve Franken, and the numerous actors involved in the show. Their part, no matter how big or small, has had a huge impact on the show. Without them, it would not be the same.
And don’t forget about the numerous writers, directors, and the like. Such as Rod Amateau, Stanley Z. Cherry, Guy Scarpitta, Joel Kane, Bud Nye, and the many, many, MANY other crew members. Thank you for truly making this show what it was. 
We remember those lost throughout the years, whether recent or decades past. Your memory will not be forgotten, so long as there’s at least one person who remembers this series. Thank you, may your spirit live on. May you rest in peace, or your memories be a treasured blessing.
I can confidently say that this show has had a huge influence in my life, in the two years I’ve been with it. I wouldn’t be here making this post if I never got curious one day in class. Needless to say, I’m happy.
Thank you, Dobie.

Avenue south residence price list
In my neighbourhood portrait about the Beach I definitely wanted to include Sandra Bussin, City Councillor for Beaches / East York, who has represented the Beach for the last 18 years. After my January 25 interview with Carole Stimmell and Sheila Blinoff from the Beach Metro Community News and a wonderful tasty lunch at Konditor I headed downtown towards Toronto City Hall, where I had an opportunity to meet Sandra Bussin, City Councillor and Deputy Mayor of the City of Toronto.
I don't usually get a chance to interact with senior city officials and I asked Sandra what the proper way of addressing her would be. She simply said "just call me Sandra", and the ice was broken. We sat down and Sandra was ready to tell me her life story.
Sandra Bussin grew up just north of the Beaches, near Woodbine and Danforth, in the Dawes Road area. At that time the area was mostly Scottish, Irish and English. She attended a tiny primary school: Coleman Avenue Public School, a 6 room school house which functioned as a hospital during WWII. As a child she played in a series of parks: little and big Dentonia Park, where she also learned to play tennis. Some of her friends even went on to become provincial tennis champions. Recently she had a chance Avenue south residence price list  to meet some of those friends again at the 30 year anniversary of the Dentonia Park Tennis Club. When Sandra grew up there was no Crescent Town yet, the area of residential highrises just northwest of the Danforth / Victoria Park intersection. The entire area here was part of the Massey Estate, and Victoria Park Avenue did not even continue all the way through and dead ended at Dentonia Park. Sandra recalls construction work on the subway in the 1960s.
Her father and mother were both born in Toronto, while her grandparents came from Scotland. Her maternal grandfather had 13 children and owned his own business near Gerrard and Broadview. Two of her uncles were jockeys and had a race horse in their back yard. Sandra fondly recalls her mom's stories, talking about her grandfather riding his horse along Gerrard Street.
As a child she displayed artistic talents and enjoyed drawing. Her father would take her to the ROM (the Royal Ontario Museum) on Saturday mornings where she studied civilization and drawing. By grade 4 Sandra would take the street car and go to the ROM all by herself. This exposure shaped her interest in the world and allowed her to interact with other people in a structured educational environment.
During the summer Sandra attended art programs at Central Tech High School and participating in these activities helped her develop a sense of independence. Sandra was supposed to attend Monarch Park Collegiate once that newly built school opened. For some reason she had always wanted to go to Malvern Collegiate which had traditionally been the feeder school for this area. But Monarch Park Collegiate Institute had just been built, and Sandra was supposed to be sent there. Instead she decided that Eastern Commerce would be a good option. In later years, when Sandra herself became a school trustee, she tried to facilitate her constituents' school choices when they presented a good reason for wanting to attend a particular school.
After high school Sandra went to York University where she studied fine arts. To get there she had to take the subway and a bus. During university she got involved in film and TV production. In her third year of university she took a summer job with then City Councillor Ann Johnston and got introduced to the dynamics at City Hall. Sandra got to run Ann's constituency office as a volunteer. Leveraging this experience allowed her to get a job at Queens Park, Ontario's provincial parliament, a year later. She had an interview with Morton Shulman, the former provincial coroner who had then become a Provincial Member of Parliament representing the Toronto area of High Park / Swansea.
At that time the CBC was running a TV series called "Wojeck" that was based on Morton Shulman's character and John Vernon, a tall good-looking actor, was playing the lead role. When Sandra first met the real Morton Shulman she said "you don't look like John Vernon". (Morton Shulman was a short slight man). Morton broke out laughing, and Sandra had the job.
Right away Sandra felt at home at Queen's Park. Originally she did not plan to stay in Morton's office, she had planned to go back to university and take another degree. But she was impressed by Morton Shulman, "a fighter for the little guy" as she calls him. Dozens of people would line up to see him on a daily basis, and Sandra was there to assist them with their needs and inquiries.
Before the Ontario government had an ombudsman, Morton Shulman would represent people that were wronged. Sandra's role was to be "Shulman's sleuth", to research people's inquiries and prepare him for the legislature. People with concerns and worries would come in from far and wide, and Morton would help them. Later Sandra worked on a TV show called "The Shulman File", a show where Morton would take up cases of people who had been unfairly treated and help them. She did a lot of research and investigative work and really enjoyed this opportunity.
