When I first saw this news, I almost thought it was a joke...

Taylor Louderman  Apr 30 2018, 10:40:52 AM

IdinaBellFoster said: "Most people I've seen have included Jessie Mueller. MEAN GIRLS received slightly better notices than FROZEN, and Louderman was almost always signaled out. Brantley loved her. I'd say the fifth slot is between Murin and Louderman."

2018 Tony Eligibility Rulings, Round #4 (FINAL)  Apr 28 2018, 10:38:48 AM

JBroadway said: "little_sally said: "Also, in addition to my question about the revivals above: does this rule about 9 eligible shows apply to acting categories as well? If so, then we'll get only 4 nominees in all the leading categories except actress in a musical, right?"
