The Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Play was an award presented annually at the Lucille Lortel Awards to honor an actor for excellence in a featured role in an Off-Broadway production since 2001. The categories were split into Outstanding Featured Actor in a Play and Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical in 2014.[3] The acting categories were made gender-neutral in 2021.[4]
Francis Jue holds the record for the most wins, winning twice from two nominations. Several musical performers won or received nominations in this category before it was split in 2014. Dan Fogler is the only musical winner in the category in 2005 for The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, while musical nominees include Tyler Maynard (2005 nominee for Altar Boyz), and Aaron Tveit (2008 nominee for Next to Normal).
