It may not have been the biggest upset, but in my opinion Idina Menzel over Tonya Pinkins blew my mind! I still find myself asking the question "really?"
I know it was considered an upset, but I was THRILLED when Christian Hoff won for Jersey Boys. Wasn't Jim Dale winning all of the awards left and right that season leading up to the Tonys?
Yes that's right. I thought it was going to be Manoel Felciano to pull off the upset that year. I correctly predicted an upset though. I didn't think the Tonys were going to award Jim's show.
Wasn't Spring Awakening's win for Best Book a bit of an upset? Everyone was predicting Grey Gardens to take that. Ditto Xanadu/Passing Strange.
