Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play

A Male with 50% of stage time, whose character is the most relevant to the show, or whose character gets top billing or last curtain call. Voted on by the New Depot Players’ Paid Members, all cast and crew members from the NDP’s 2006-2007 season, and anyone currently nominated for an award. All eligible cast members have been listed and then are voted on. The one with the highest votes wins. Choose ONLY one.

Tom Harrison in The Boys Next Door. This actor gave a stirring performance as Lucien P. Smith, a severely handicapped adult, with a passion for Spider Man and library books.

John Scott Hendry in The Boys Next Door. This nominee gave us a tender performance as Norman Bulansky, the doughnut eating, key fiddling, Sheila loving - mentally challenged man.

Tom Johnson in The Boys Next Door. The social worker of The Boys Next Door. This performance as Jack Palmer helped settle the crazy household antics of four special men, while trying to grip the reality that is his own life.

Scott Mills in Dearly Beloved. The redneck antics of Dub Dubberly’s family on his daughter’s wedding day, were brought to life by this actor. A hysterical performance that includes pokin’ meat, DANCIN’, and Pabst Blue Ribbon.

Les Mosley in The Boys Next Door. This dark performance gave us a glimpse into schizophrenic Barry Klemper’s struggle to cope in a normal world.

Jay Tryall in The Boys Next Door. A hysterical performance bringing to life the worries of an obsessive compulsive manic depressive man named Arnold Wiggins.
