The Drama League has announced that Nathan Lane will be honored at its 35th annual benefit gala, subtitled A Musical Celebration of Broadway. The event will take place at the Plaza Hotel on November 5.
The black-tie gala will feature dozens of stars from Hollywood and Broadway in a one-night-only musical tribute to help raise funds for the Drama League's educational initiatives for promising young artists.
Lane recently won his third Tony Award for his performance as Roy Cohn in Angels in America. He has also won Tonys for his performances in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and The Producers.
