Official 2018 TONY Nominations Thread

[BroadwayConcierge]

The morning is here!! Just over a half hour away. Figured it'd be easiest for everybody to post their thoughts in real time here! 

Livestream Link (beginning at 8:30AM): https://www.tonyawards.com/en_US/live/index.html

Traveling for work today. But bought in-flight WiFi (not streaming though) so I’ll be checking here for noms.

Hope to God it works this time

What's the practical difference between this and the "ranting" thread? Are we supposed to put all the negative reactions there, while putting all the neutral and positive comments here? That will make for some rich debate! 

[disneybroadwayfan22]

Start already, good god!!!!!

[BroadwayConcierge]

I always start a rant thread to keep the board readable and sane. If you want to ignore that one and rant here is ok too.

It's music or score. If you've seen the production, you'll see why it's nominated.

I was shocked by this, but also by the fact that neither of them were for FROZEN.

Watching those two stumble over saying Spongebob Squarepants is giving me LIFE!

Katharine "Oh, S**t!" McPhee

[ChildofEarth]

Honestly, this is warming me up to Leslie Odom Jr. as a person - I always knew he was insanely talented, but he's SO warm and funny this morning.

[Lousy]

Oh my god, Katherine McPhee need to never host anything again in her life. Had to mute it and just look at the screen beside them.

JAMES MCARDLE AND LEE PACE GOT BUMPED FOR MICHAEL CERA? WTF?

[BroadwayConcierge]

James McArdle is the first notable "snub" so far for me.

[BroadwayConcierge]

Gemignani for Featured Actor!

[quizking101]

FIVE Performance nods for CAROUSEL...Wow!

[BroadwayConcierge]

And no Kate Rockwell

[JBroadway]

James McArrdle's role was much harder than Michael Cera's but IMO Cera just did it better. 

[ACL2006]

These two are too funny.
