Sam Mendes (OW 1983) won the award for ‘Best Director of a Play’ for his work on The Ferryman at last night’s Tony Awards 2019.
The drama, which tells the story of a former IRA member residing in County Armagh during The Troubles, also picked up the gong for ‘Best Play’ at the ceremony held in New York’s Radio City.
This is the latest in a string of acclamations for The Ferryman, the most notable of which came in April 2018 as Mendes was awarded ‘Best Director’ at the Olivier Awards.
Though unable to attend the ceremony himself, Mendes spoke of his gratefulness for the award and its significance on Twitter: ‘I have lost count of the times on this job that I’ve counted my lucky stars. And now, again, I’m left to reflect on what a privilege – what an absolute privilege it is – to be able to tell stories for a living’.
The play also gained the awards for ‘Best Scenic Design’ and ‘Best Costume Design’.
The Ferryman closes on Broadway on Thursday 7 July. Tickets can still be purchased here.
