Winners and nominees

Nominations for the 2019–2020 Drama League Awards were announced in a virtual ceremony on April 30, 2020. The year's awards were announced to be the Gratitude Awards for this season, due to the closure of theatre due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, award winners were announced virtually on June 18, 2020, with the notable absence of direction awards.

The Inheritance won the award for Outstanding Production of a Play, Moulin Rouge! The Musical won Outstanding Production of a Musical, and A Soldier's Play and Little Shop of Horrors took home the awards for revival of a play and musical, respectively. Danny Burstein won the award for Distinguished Performance for his role as Harold Zidler in Moulin Rouge! The Musical.
