Who's taking Leading Actress in a Musical this year?
May 14 2026, 01:18:33 PM
I agree it will (unfortunately) be the thoroughly mediocre Levy. None of the others or their shows seem well-regarded enough to pull ahead, though there are several, if not all, I would choose before her. But she's in the best received show, and will be carried along in its acclaim.

I think it's difficult to write a musical with perfectly developed characters. Most musicals, even very good ones, lack in that department. But minimizing Two Strangers to a surface level, primitive Hallmark movie is rid

BECKY SHAW Reviews

There were a few (BECKY, SHAWBILL2ST, SHAWMANIA2ST) but yes, it looks like none of them are working anymore, probably because there's only a month left in the run.

Very Early 2026 Tony Winner Predictions
May 7 2026, 01:40:56 PM
While "Two Strangers" would be my personal pick (and I would love to see it win), I agree that it's Schmigadoon's to lose. Besides the aforementioned points, it's a homegrown product (vs a foreign import) with a large cast of Broadway favorites on and offstage. In a year without a consensus critical favorite, it seems like it has the most going for it to make it the popular choice.

Is it common for them not to announce the director of one of the shows, or am I missing who's directing Hallelujah, Baby! (Please not Porter...)

How on earth could Titanique win it’s a JOKE it’s a PARODY MUSICAL. The Cake musical looks incredibly boring and dull How on earth could that be the Best Musical?. Schmigadoon looks good but can’t imagine it being as good as this I was simply blown away by the special effects, powerful vocals, large sets, the acting was incredible and how each of them were so rooted in their characters. This is what Broadway has been missing the cake musi

oh really??? well, what do you think its gonna be? if you had to rank the musicals this season"
They already said at the top of the page.
Also, they've spent months bashing this show so you can be assured they would rank it dead last.

But the question even though Titaníque is at the top of the leaderboard, does that mean it will win Best Musical come TONY night?"
No, because the less than two point difference is essentially meaningless and within any margin of error (especially since

Fewer than two points separate the top four new musicals in BWW's scoring, another sign of just how close this year's Tony race is.

Copying and pasting almost an entire review to rob the outlet of the click instead of leaving it to the reader to click through to the full review is a sh***y thing to do.
