Jodie Comer has paid tribute to the “sisterhood” of theatre workers behind the scenes on her West End debut.
Comer won the best actress prize at the Olivier awards on Sunday night for her performance in Suzie Miller’s play Prima Facie. After collecting her award, she praised the stage management team, saying: “I just felt so held, every night … The women were backstage the whole time, doing their work, holding me up, making sure everyone felt safe and happy, making sure we were having fun, really truly caring about what it was that we were doing.”
