Cordero is the killer Cheech onstage, but he’s been killing it in the awards. He’s picked up a Theatre World Award. The award is given to those making their Broadway or Off-Broadway debuts.

There’s an award that you can vote for right now. Broadway.com are running their Audience Choice Awards. You can vote for Marin Mazzie in Favourite Diva Performance and Yorke for Favourite Breakthrough Performance (Female). Voting closes 18th May so get voting at their site.

It’s all on the road to the Tonys on the 8th June. Broadway.com asked some nominees to fill in a questionnaire. Here’s Cordero’s and Stroman’s. No surprise that Allen himself didn’t bother.
