Rupert Everett has picked up a Best Actor nomination for The Judas Kiss, and Danny Boyle's Olympic opening ceremony is up for theatre event of the year (12), alongside the premiere of Susan Boyle's musical I Dreamed A Dream.

Stephen Fry's role in Twelfth Night has earned him a Best Supporting Actor in a Play nomination, while Imelda Staunton has been nominated for Best Actress in a Musical for her part in Sweeney Todd.

Spice Girls star Melanie Chisholm has received a Best Supporting Actress in a Musical nod for her part in Jesus Christ Superstar.

The winners, to be determined by a public vote, will be announced at a ceremony at the Palace Theatre in the capital on 17 February (13).
