Other winners included Rupert Goold, who picked up Best Director for Enron, and Weisz's co-star Ruth Wilson, who was named Best Supporting Actress.

Musical Wicked won the Audience Award, while Spring Awakening claimed four prizes, including Best New Musical and Best Sound Design

Nica Burns, Society of London Theatre (SOLT) president, said: "The Olivier Awards reflect a year of outstanding creativity and production excellence which brought the public rushing to the theatre, taking box office and attendance records to an all-time high. "The London theatre is a shining light in the continuing recessionary gloom - something we can all be proud of."
