This has been a huge week for Caissie Levy. The musical theater veteran was nominated for her first Tony Award on Tuesday (May 5), earning a nod for best performance by an actress in a leading role in a musical for her work in the Broadway revival of Ragtime.
“To be nominated for the first time means so much to me,” Levy told New York Theatre Guide after the news broke. “I’m truly overwhelmed and can’t stop smiling. And now, I’m going to drop my kids off at school! Balance.”
With Mother’s Day coming up on Sunday (May 10), it’s a fitting week for her Tony nom, given that she plays the role of Mother in the celebrated production. Ragtime isn’t Levy’s first matriarchal turn, either – she played Diana Goodman, a mother with bipolar disorder, in the West End premiere of Next to Normal (and was nominated for an Olivier Award in 2024 for it) and previously played mothers in Caroline, Or Change and Sarah Silverman’s The Bedwetter.
The Ontario-born actress is a mother in real life, too: Levy has two children, a 10-year-old boy and a 5-year-old girl, with David Reiser. To celebrate mothers on- and offstage, Levy shared a Mother’s Day playlist with Billboard of 10 of her favorite mother-related songs. Naturally, Broadway is represented (via a classic from Into the Woods), but the playlist encompasses many musical styles and eras, from Joni Mitchell to Ms. Lauryn Hill to Foy Vance.
