Kinky Boots, Legally Blonde & Hairspray Stars Honor Mr. Abbott Award Winner Jerry Mitchell

The Society of Stage Directors and Choreographers honored Jerry Mitchell with the Mr. Abbott Award, a lifetime achievement award named for the late George Abbott. Stars from Mitchell’s many musicals—including Kinky Boots, Legally Blonde, The Full Monty, Grease, Hairspray and Catch Me If You Can—arrived at B.B. King's on May 13 to celebrate Mitchell’s long and acclaimed stage career. (A few guests even dated back to his years as a Broadway performer!) The special evening included several live performances and many a memorable reunion. Click below for complete coverage of Mitchell and his cavalcade of stars. Congrats, Jerry!
