Great, can't wait for them to nominate Paramour as Best Musical and the helicopter from Miss Saigon and a Times Square Elmo as Best Actor.

Um, Norma's new monkey will easily beat Elmo for that Best Actor (mostly because all Elmos will split the vote amongst each other)

Caption: Every so often there was a rare moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.

It's a shame that the ranting homeless guy was disqualified from Best Play because he stays on the east side of 6th avenue.

I fully expect to see the headline: "IN TRANSIT and CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY Lead 2017 Outer Critics Circle Nominations!" tomorrow.

Is Nicki Cochrane eligible for One Ticket Please?

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

I'm sure she's being given a lifetime achievement.

People always joke about the OCC Awards, but really the last few years, the Drama Desks have been far more ridiculous.

Youngish guy with a beard who screams about the F-ing Ni-s? my son and I heard him on matinee day last week on 41st and 6th. He gave quite an impassioned performance. The cops barely looked up.

Whatever happened to One Ticket Please? I could've sworn I saw Ms. Cochrane at the Essen (of all places) near my office, but she didn't have large bags so I wasn't positive.

This is very exciting.  Natasha Pierre and Dear Evan Hansen aren't eligible for Nominations unless there are new actors like Groban and Benton.

Michael Park should be the only person in DEH eligible for an acting nomination, as he was the only one not in the Second Stage production. (He was in the DC production originally, and John Dossett, who played Larry off-broadway, is actually in War Paint now.)

Were Great Comet's technical elements eligible for nomination, but the rest of the show not (due to being eligible in prior years)?

Interesting to see Bart Sher and Condola Rashad not nominated for Oslo and A Doll's House Part Two, respectively. Overall though, these aren't nearly as wacky as OCC noms usually are. 

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
