Get Your Red-Hot Tony Nomination Predictions!

More important than who gets the silly, old Democratic nomination is who will nab the TONY nominations (which will be announced tomorrow; you'll know it when all theater queens suddenly start shrieking, crying, and saying "What the fuck?").

These seem right, except maybe Stew or Tom Wopat will sneak in there.

Hey Michael. I believe that Sinead Cusack is considered feature. Got another choice for that category?

Posted On: Monday, May. 12 2008 @ 10:52AM
musto says:

Well, if Sinead is indeed featured, then I'd probably put Anika Noni Rose in the Actress category and drop out either Laurie Metcalf or Sian Phillips from Featured. It's confusing because the Tonys never made an official announcement on Sinead's category and when they don't do so, they say the eligibility is based on opening night credits. I have no idea if that makes her lead or featured.

John says:

Despite some negative reviews (which in my opinion, it did not deserve), I think A Catered Affair will get a Best Musical nod. And Tom Wopat will sneak in for Actor in a Musical. He could very well win it too, though I think it is Szot's now. And what about Norbert Leo Butz as Leading Actor in a Play? He got some great reviews earlier this year. He won't win, but he should get some recognition. Otherwise, spot on.

Michael,

This item doesn't show Musto Tony predictions? What is wrong?
