Earlier today we announced that Tam Mutu has won the 2014 West End Frame Award for Best Performance of a Song in a Musical. We received over 14,500 votes during the seventeen day voting period and the support was absolutely incredible, even performers with smaller percentages received hundreds of votes. Take a look at the full result below.
Speaking to West End Frame, Tam said: "Wow! What a wonderful surprise! Thank you so much to everyone who voted. It is a huge honour to get to sing a song that has been performed by so many great artists over the years. To be given this award is very humbling. I am truly overwhelmed. Thank you!"
We would like to thank everyone who voted! It has been incredible to see so much dedicated support for the West End's top performers. Best Performance of a Song in a Musical is about recognising and celebrating performers who blow audiences away night after night with their tremendous talents. We received countless Tweets, comments and messages about the phenomenally high standard of the nominees, all of whom would have been worthy winners.
Voting for the next 2014 West End Frame Award, Understudy of the Year, opens later this month. Further information will be announced shortly.
