She's filming Mercy Street in Virginia. Announcing the Tony nominations isn't exactly the kind of thing you delay shooting over. It's more like the "who's in town and doesn't mind waking up at 6:30am?" kind of thing.
She just signed up to do MERCY STREET. It was announced a few days ago.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
Tbh I don't blame Patina for her decision. Like others have said, announcing Tony noms isn't as important as shooting a series. And we get a BOM reunion, so that'll be great!
