I love Matt Doyle, so I am thrilled he has any role in this production! I saw it at the Shakespeare theater with Michael Xavier and Josh Young and thought it was wonderful.
Really hoping for a transfer of Ride the Cyclone, but since that does seem very unlikely I’m super excited for Kiss Me, Kate. Also, though I have literally no idea what the play is about, I’m a huge fan of Lucas Hedges so I am excited to see The Waverly Gallery
I am utterly confused as to why Ben Brantley thinks Carousel should and will win, because I most definitely cannot see that happening. Also, Michael Cera?!?!?!

Although the cast recording was never recorded, this song was recorded a few years later - and you can easily find many concert performanceson youtube.
helvizz, I was just about to suggest “You don’t know”! I think it’s a wonderful song that sounds right up your alley. Also,
I would say Carrie as well, but keeping the revised score from 2012 (which I adore) and keeping the revised book as well (though I would revise it a bit further). I would keep it small-ish, maybe like the LA in the round revival, at the Circle in the Square. Maybe even modernize it a bit ala Mean Girls and keep it with a great cast (I could see Carolee Carmelo as Margret, a new comer as Carrie and maybe someone like Alex Finke for Sue), I think the s

A friend of mine is auditioning for Kim Mcafee in Bye Bye Birdie and asked me to pose a question. What should she sing for her audtion song? She is a soprano and they require a song similar to the style of the show! Please give any suggestions you have!!

Sam Clemmett for Harry Potter, was the one snub for me. He was just so wonderful!

Does anyone think someone else could take the category?"
Oh how I wish Anthony Boyle could pull an upset and win, but even I know how highly unlikely that is so I think it’s safe to say Lane has got this in the bag.
I just missed who was nominated for featured actor in a play... Does anyone know?

Would love to see both Sam Clemmett and Anthony Boyle be nominated. Also, John Cariani for The Band’s visit. And finally, although this will never happen I would love to see Isaac Powell get a nomination for Once on This Isalnd.

I know right? His voice was wasted, I would have much preferred hearing him sing than Archie (KJ Apa)
