I think she made a mistake in saying Colman and Domingo will cancel each other out.

This is as good as Harold Camping predicting the end of the world.

The Leading Actor in a Musical is still up in the air as any of the five could possibly win.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I think Ellen Barkin has best featured actress in a play. Frankly, I think The Normal Heart will score a few acting wins. (Barkin and Hickey will win and I'm hoping Mantello pulls the upset but not betting on it.)
I also think best actor in a musical will either go to Gad, Rannells or Tony Sheldon (my personal hope).

Clark over Bananti? I hope not. Benanti's name was not even mentioned in the will win category, but LuPone's was? I don't get that. I definitely think Benanti is a front runner in this category.

I think the only definities at this point are Best Musical(Book of Mormon), Best Musical Revival(Anything Goes) & Best Actress in a Musical(Sutton Foster).

Rylance or Mantello
McDormand
Foster
Butz or Gad
Hickey
Barkin or Falco
Benanti
O'Malley
