What does that even mean? MISS SAIGON and FOLLIES have never been on Broadway in the same season, let alone competing against each other for Best Musical. Updated On: 4/30/13 at 09:23 AM

And we needed this in a separate thread because. . . ..?

Competing with broadway guy for irrelevance?

Hey I just put my predictions. I didn't know this person was entitled to their very own thread. Wow.

I was referring to the original poster.

I think some of your predictions are right, except: Golden Boy for revival of a play; Tony Shalhoub for Golden Boy; Judith Light for The Assembled Parties; Nathan Lane for The Nance; Nicholas Martin for Vanya...; Kenneth Posner for Pippin (is he really going to get three nominations and no Tony award?); Billy Porter for Kinky Boots (he's a lead, voters know that, Bertie Carvel belongs in featured category - voters will understand this).

Unfortunately, I think Cicely Tyson will win, but I prefer Kristine Nielsen (and Jessica Hecht, who wasn't nominated).

I think Bertie will win anyway (Harvey Fierstein could easily have been deemed 'too featured' but he won best actor for Hairspray, and Christine Ebersole did for "42nd Street"). Bertie's performance is really very good. He isn't a man playing a woman-he is a woman. I know it sounds silly, but he really embodies the character incredibly well. I think he's going to take it, all category placement aside.

Nielsen would have won in featured. (Did you see Ms. Tyson? She carries the show.)

"And we needed this in a separate thread because. . . ..?

No, because I wanted to hear people's opinons on mine and I didn't want my guesses to blend in.

Oh - I get it. Competing with broadway guy for being an attention whore. Thanks for the clarification.
