Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Play
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Play was first awarded at the 1974-1975 Drama Desk Awards and has been awarded every year since. Before the 21st Drama Desk Awards, acting awards were given without making distinctions between roles in straight dramas as opposed to musicals, nor were there separate categories for actors and actresses.
