Yes, they are.

I thought Vanessa Redgrave was compltely brilliant, by the way.

I think we can now narrow down the potential winner to be between:

Raúl Esparza — Company
Audra McDonald — 110 in the Shade
Vanessa Redgrave — The Year of Magical Thinking
Meryl Streep — Mother Courage and Her Children

I think it will be Vanessa Redgrave or Liev Schrieber.

If its Audra, Ebersole better watch out...

I really think Meryl Streep should win. Her performance still lingers in my mind and it was breathtaking to watch one woman carry a show from start to finish without faltering once.

Does that make him a front-runner for the Tony or does he still stand some real competition?

I couldn't have cared less about the character. Almost laughed with the "breakdown" while people around me were almost sobbing. Definitely one of those "did we just see the same show?" kind of moments.

SOOOOO many more deserving people were on that list. IMHO anyway.

Well, I was right. I told everyone that an actor or actress from a straight play would win this year. (not on the board-out in the 'real world'!)

I'm fine with Liev's win. He was brilliant.

WOOHOO COMPANY, JOURNEY'S END, SPRING AWAKENING! I'm glad they at least got those three right.

As for Schreiber, kind of disappointing, and UTOPIA was expected I know -- though hopefully the Tonys won't follow suit with those two.
