A who’s who of current American theatre flocked to the Drama Desk Awards—where big winners included Elaine Stritch at Liberty, Thoroughly Modern Millie, and Fortune’s Fool, just to name a few—at the Park Lane’s Grand Ballroom, with an after-party at Compass restaurant. Stars of stage and screen, including emcee Elaine Stritch, Meryl Streep, Vanessa Williams, Mercedes Ruehl, John Lithgow, Bill Pullman, Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson, Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, Alan Bates, Alan Rickman, Jeffrey Wright, Frank Langella, Anna Paquin, Elizabeth Franz, Patrick Wilson, Louise Petrie, Brian D’Arcy James, Laura Benanti, Karen Mason, Shuler Hensley, Judy Kaye, and Susan Strohman, all took a bow.
