Is it that time? Mr. Wormwood, mine are not that far off from yours, though trying to manifest some Dancin' love. Some of these acting categories were just so painful to narrow down - exciting year with too many great options! Starred my winner picks for the hell of it. 

Best Musical
& Juliet
*Kimberly Akimbo

New York, New York
Shucked
Some Like It Hot


Best Revival of a Musical
Bob Fosse's Dancin'
Into the Woods
*Parade
Sweeney Todd


(In my perfect world there'd be a forced tie with Camelot and 5 nominees.)

Best Lead Actress in a Musical
Annaleigh Ashford, Sweeney Todd
Sara Bareilles, Into the Woods
*Victoria Clark, Kimberly Akimbo

Best Featured Actor in a Musical
Justin Cooley, Kimberly Akimbo
Gavin Creel, Into the Woods
Kevin Del Aguila, Some Like It Hot
Jordan Donica, Camelot
Alex Joseph Grayson, Parade

Best Director of a Musical
*Michael Arden, Parade
Lear deBessonet, Into the Woods
Thomas Kail, Sweeney Todd
Jack O'Brien, Shucked
Jessica Stone, Kimberly Akimbo

Kimberly Akimbo, John Clancy
New York, New York; Sam Davis & Daryl Waters
Shucked, Jason Howland
*Some Like It Hot, Charlie Rosen & Bryan Carter

I haven't seen enough of the plays yet to really make decent judgment calls there - have tickets for four of them over the next month, but missed a lot of the fall & winter ones other than Leopoldstadt.

Some Like It Hot - 11

Kimberly Akimbo - 9

Sweeney Todd - 8
Parade - 7
Camelot - 6

So, with only 7 contenders for Best Actress in a Play, we only have 4 nominees?

It's Comer, Audra, Brosnahan and Chastain, right?

Yeah, the whole Dancin' thing is what I'm least sure of. I don't feel great about predicting 0 nominations for it when I could see it get in for Revival over Camelot or sneak in to something like Orchestrations or Lighting.

A few other things I didn't predict but COULD see happening:
- Andrew Lloyd Webber or Carolee Carmello get in for Bad Cinderella
- A Beautiful Noise gets in over NYNY for Best Musical
- Ben Platt or Josh Groban get snubbed (more likely Platt)

Again, those are not things I'm officially predicting but they are things that wouldn't surprise me.

Yeah I could easily see any of those things happening, and it was Beautiful Noise I didn’t feel great about getting zero. Wouldn’t be the most shocking thing in the world to me if it swapped in for NY NY in Best Musical, Will/Robyn (though the featured races are so stacked!), or something like choreo. 

I don’t know if Dancin will get into revival, but if it gets anything on Tuesday it should get lighting for sure. That lighting was thrilling!

I have ''A Beautiful Noise'' in Choreo, ''Dancin'' for Lightning and ''Bad Cinderella'' for Costumes.

Only productions with 0 noms that I'm predicting are ''Almost Famous'' and ''1776''.

A preview of Tuesday's news cycle on non-Broadway-specific publications:

12:01am –– WGA Guild writers strike begins, which will cannibalize all entertainment media coverage

9am –– Tony nominations announced

the rest of the week –– any mention of the Tony noms will come with the caveat that "the awards show is scheduled for June 11 but we don't know what form it will take because of the strike"

It is unfortunate that the strike dominate the media news on the Tony nominations day.

However, with regard to the actual ceremony - can't they still pretty easily have a telecast? Just not a monologue or some video bits or banter with presenters? Like all the awards and performances can still happen?

I think Comer and Chastain are in for sure, but wouldn't be surprised if either Laura Linney or Jessica Hecht bump one of the other two (probably Audra).

Posted: 4/29/23 at 2:13pm

My final predictions.  I saw every eligible production this year (except Walking with Ghosts, which...I don't think matters at all).  Gaten was out when I saw Sweeney, and his understudy was just okay, so I'm guessing a bit at that category.

I've listed who I would nominate in the main categories ("My Top..."The 76th Annual Tony Award Nominations (2023) followed by I think who will actually get nominated (with potential spoilers below the line). And damn, there were a few categories (most of the featureds) where I just didn't know what to do after 1-3 nom locks.  Quite a few wide open categories.

Anyway...here goes....

Posted: 4/30/23 at 1:22am

GoldDerby pundits Sam Eckmann and David Buchanan have posted their final Tony predictions for Best Musical and Musical Revival. They debate the best bets to score nominations, and which shows are fighting for the final slot. Also: Will ''Some Like It Hot'' get in both J. Harrison Ghee and Christian Borle? Will ''Into the Woods'' get in both Sara Bareilles and Patina Miller? Will Phillipa Soo get one nominnation or two (for ''Into the Woods'' and ''Camelot'' ) or none? So many possibilities!

I don't know why, but I'm expecting a surprise Ben Platt or Josh Groban snub. I could see the final group being Borle, Burnap, Ghee, Groban, and Swenson. OR Platt, Burnap, Ghee, Swenson, and Ryan/Borle. I could definitely be wrong, but I'd love to see something completely surprising on Tuesday.

I would hate to see Platt be snubbed for his work in Parade. I just found his performance to be so impactful, moving, and culturally speaking really profound. I'm of the opinion it's his best stage work to date, including Evan Hansen. Groban's performance I can't really speak to, I haven't seen Sweeney yet.

I’m all for surprises, but I’d hate Josh or Ben missing out. I loved their work and I think it would feel like such a slap in the face to snub them when they have showcases this big for a field that’s not particularly competitive. However, I think they’re safe along with Ghee.

The buzz hearing from industry friends is that Dancin' could slip in and get a nom over Camelot!

That would possibly give Dancin' two nominations: revival and lighting 

https://didtheylikeit.com/shows/bob-fosses-dancin/


Per GoldDerby 

It’s a battle between Lincoln Center Theatre’s revival of “Camelot” and director Wayne Cilento’s new version of “Bob Fosse’s Dancin.” With a mixed overall response to “Camelot,” I’ve slotted “Dancin” into my lineup. The show is fun, sexy, pays homage to a giant of the theater, and the cast is impressive as hell. But I admit that it’s risky to bet against LCT in this category since nominators fell head over heels for their past lush revivals of “My Fair Lady,” “The King and I,” and “South Pacific.” David is sticking with the Lerner and Lowe classic because he sees the show racking up a healthy number of overall nominations, when compared to a relatively low expected tally for “Dancin” (since the numbers are a true recreation of Fosse’s work, it is ironically not eligible for the Choreography race).

The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

Anyone predicting that any person WILL or DEFINITELY WILL NOT be nominated is being foolish. You have no idea. No matter how "in" you think you are, you have no idea. I'll leave it to someone else to come up with all the surprise nominations/snubs that have occurred in the past (particularly in the Supporting Actor/Actress categories) that prove this point.

I've been seeing a lot of people predict Beautiful Noise for choreography (and it also got nominated for Chita Rivera) but I legitimately don't remember a ton of dance in that?  Like Robyn Hurder has a couple features but I don't really recall anything outside of that worthy of a nomination.  As opposed to something like Bad Cinderella, which I thought felt like a "dancier" show (though I doubt it'll get a nom anyway), so am I just drawing a complete blank on this?

Broadway Flash said: "Bad Cinderella nominations: Musical, Score, Orchestrations, Costumes, Leading Actor, Featured Actress. They will get a total of 6."

I guess we'll see Tuesday morning but that feels insane to me. I think it has a chance at Featured Actress, Score, Costumes & Orchestrations (though I didn't predict it to get any of those).

I don't think it has ANY chance to get nominated for Musical or Lead Actor.
