Eddie Redmayne in RED. He's awesome, and it might be the only production I've actually seen in its entirety.

"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."

Christopher Fitzgerald, Finian's Rainbow
I'd love to see Finian's Rainbow to be nominated across the board. Lovely acting all around, charming direction and choreography... come on nominating committee, do the right thing!
And Christiane Noll for Ragtime.
Also, this: Sherie Rene Scott in "My Solo Show is Better Than the Entire Broadway Season".
Amen to that!
Okay, so that's definitely more than just ONE. Whoops. (Angela in Night Music too! Dammit, over the limit again...)

Posted: 5/3/10 at 11:35amI'm going to agree with Adamgreer and Ljay by saying Angela Lansbury in A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC. The single best performance of the entire season, in my opinion.

Leigh Ann Larkin for A Little Night Music.
Not because she was better than Angela Lansbury, by any means, but because she really took that part and made it something captivating, funny, and intelligent. I thought she was incredible.

Sorry, I thought she was terribly miscast and in a completely different show than everyone else onstage. Vulgar, and not in the right way. She does get a big ovation for her song though, but I thought it was the wrong wrong wrong interpretation and presentation of that song.
Actually, I almost felt the same way about her performance in Gypsy. What is with her odd takes on these roles?

Posted: 5/3/10 at 1:39pmFor me it's Angela Lansbury in Night Music and Jan Maxwell for the double noms in The Royal Family and Lend Me a Tenor.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!
