Phantom Or Les Mis? They both Killed at The Tony's.If By the off chance that they came out on the same year,which do you think would have won the Top Prizes?
Picture a handsome heroicly charismatic
Plain spoken know-nothing
Skirt chasing cocky little son of a-
Lie down with dogs and you wake up with
A raise and a promotion.
So he's a flirt, a complete ego maniac
The fact is he's also the face of the strike
What a face
Face the fact that's a face that could save us all from
sinking in the ocean.
-Katherine (Newsies)
Superboy and the Invisible Girl
Everything a kid oughtta be
He's immortal, forever alive
Then there's me
I wish I could fly
And magically appear and disappear
I wish I could fly
I'd fly far away from here
-Natalie (Next to Normal)
My reasons, even if they're silly: Both musicals won Best Musical and two acting performances (although Phantom Michael won Lead and Enjolras Michael won Featured). While Les Miserables won more Tony awards, I think Phantom didn't win some of its awards (like score) because it had big competition in Into The Woods. Les Miserables didn't have that much competition, I think.
