Congratulations to Helen Mirren for receiving a Tony Award nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for “The Audience”. She shares the category with Geneva Carr (Hand to God), Elisabeth Moss (The Heidi Chronicles), Carey Mulligan (Skylight) and Ruth Wilson (Constellations). “The Audience” has received a total of three nominations, including Richard McCabe for Best Actor in a Play and Bob Crowley for Best Costume Design of a Play. This is Helen’s third Tony Award nomination – for her third Broadway play. She has received previous nominations for “A Month in the Country” in 1995 and for “Dance of Death” in 2002. So maybe third’s the lucky charm. The Tony Awards are handed out during a live ceremony on June 7, 2015.

On March 30, Helen has attended the New York premiere for “Woman in Gold”, followed by an after-party that reunited the cast and crew with Gustav Klimt’s painting. Over 500 pictures from the premiere have been added to the photo gallery. Also, additional production stills, on-set pictures and international posters have been added as well.

Helen has had a busy schedule earlier this week when the public promotion for “Woman in Gold” was packed into two days. She has attended The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Live with Michael & Kelly and The Today Show (twice). Additionally, interview clips from Entertainment Tonight and BBC Talking Movies have been added to the video archive alongside a promotional interview and new clip from the film. Enjoy!
