The Outsiders has taken out the Tony Award for Best Musical pipping
SUFFS which took out Best Score and Best Book.
The result came despite The Outsiders receiving lukewarm reviews, described by The New York Times as a compelling if imperfect musical and The Guardian as competent but forgettable.
Suffs produced by (amongst others) Hillary Clinton also received lukewarm reviews described by The New York Times as "insufficient. Its scenes often come off as educational skits."
