The Outer Critics Circle Awards are presented annually for theatrical achievements both on Broadway and Off-Broadway. They were begun during the 1949–1950 theatre season. The awards are decided upon by theatre critics who review for out-of-town newspapers, national publications, and other media outlets outside of New York City. Simon Saltzman, a long-time member of the OCC executive committee and theatre reviewer, serves as president. The first awards (for 1949–50) were: ''The Cocktail Party'' (Play); ''The Consul'' (Musical); Sheila Guyse, Performances in Supporting Roles for ''Lost in the Stars'', and Daniel Reed, Performances in Supporting Roles for ''Come Back, Little Sheba''. The nominees are announced each April. The presentation of awards is made in May at Sardi's Restaurant in Manhattan, New York City, and precede the Tony Awards ceremony. The nominees for 2010–11 were announced on April 26, 2011 by Tyne Daly and Brian d'Arcy James.
