Alex Newell won Best Featured Actor in a Musical and J. Harrison Ghee Best Lead Actor.
Newell’s and Ghee’s nominations alone made history for nonbinary performers. They chose to be nominated in the male category, but some other nonbinary actors have withdrawn from competition because of the gendered categories. & Juliet‘s Justin David Sullivan did so this season, and Asia Kate Dillon made the same decision after appearing in Macbeth last season.
