I heard they're going for a name...

Melissa25 said: "My hopeis that Eden, Amber,Riccardo Hernández and Peter Nigrini all win for Lempicka. Now that would be an upset."

Audiences expect Broadway performers to sing on key (especially at Broadway prices) I'm surprised Eden was even nominated.

I think she's very much the front runner - she's been nominated 3x in a ROW plus the play is currently airing on PBS so the voters will be reminded.

Maryann Plunkett for best actress in a musical 

Illinoise for orchestrations 

Rachel McAdams for best actress in a play 

Brian D'arcy James  for best actor in a musical (though I'm fine with Groff winning it's just Brian is way overdue) 

Here Lies Love for Set design (It has a really good shot but Tony voters recency bias is STRONG so I think Cabaret is taking it) 

Corey Stoll for Best supporting

RippedMan said: "bigbelterbaby said: "The day of closing for some of the shows in relation to Tony Award wins seems like money on the table a little, even if they’ve been running along time. Merrilly is poised to win several Tony’s and then close a few weeks later, most likely Appropriate will win Best Revival and Best Actress and close a few weeks later, Stereophonic is set to close in August, Illinoise is limited. I guess at least the final weeks should be fun

Boy George departs the Broadway company on Sunday.

Ohhhh that's good to know! 

 


Balcony experience at Merrily?
 May 6 2024, 01:22:05 AM

I was in the 4th to last row of the center balcony and the only thing I missed were the heads of the band - but saw all the action on stage perfectly.  The rake is steep at the Hudson so unless you’re on the very far left or right you don’t miss anything. 


LEMPICKA closing May 19

That’s why her nomination was so surprising to me. You’d think singing on key would be the floor for performing on Broadway.

Any rumors/guesses who will be playing Mercutio? Nurse? Surely Sam Gold has his favorites...

QueenAlice said: "My point being that if they are recording an album of the show's music, the songs are all going to be very short unless they are augmented for the recording."

They've already recorded it and are calling it an EP. Hopefully they'll release it close to when the Tony nominations are announced '


UNCLE VANYA Previews

KevinKlawitter said: "The Distinctive Baritone said: "For any Chekhov fans who haven’t seen it, I highly recommend the Conor McPherson version with Toby Jones.They filmed it onstage in an empty theater after it was shut down by COVID. The acting is exceptional and McPherson does a great job of making the language sound contemporary.

Wish I could see this version - Steve Carrell is a perfect Vanya I’m sure.

Hugh Bonneville will be starring in a production of McPhereson's Vanya as part ofBerkeley Rep's 24-25 Season

This immediately became the frontrunner for Best Play at the Tonys so I can't imagineit will close in July if it wins a slew of awards. I'm guessing the cast has extensions to  Labo
