Fred Ebb (and John Kander and Rupert Holmes) will win for lyrics. The lyrics for Fame Become Me were nothing but a bunch of slick showbiz references. Sure there were some in Curtains, but not nearly as many as there were in Fame Becomes Me.

It's a bloody strong category; I have no idea who the likely winner will be.
Outstanding Actor in a Musical: Michael Cerveris, LoveMusik Raul Esparza, Company John Gallagher, Jr., Spring Awakening Jonathan Groff, Spring Awakening David Hyde Pierce, Curtains Martin Short, Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me
Although Cerveris or Hyde Pierce wouldn't be massively surprising. I'm still a bit confused as to why Gallagher is in here...
Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical: Brooks Ashmanskas, Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me Christian Borle, Legally Blonde Aaron Lazar, Les Miserables Gavin Lee, Mary Poppins Orville Mendoza, Adrift in Macao David Pittu, LoveMusik
Pretty wide open if you ask me. I don't mind who takes it, but it's an interesting one to look at.
Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical: Linda Balgord, The Pirate Queen Celia Keenan-Bolger, Les Miserables Debra Monk, Curtains Orfeh, Legally Blonde Barbara Walsh, Company Karen Ziemba, Curtains
There's a few ways it could go here. If it doesn't go to Walsh though, I will be in a huff at work tomorrow. ^_^

I'm not going to comment on the books of Mary Poppins or Legally Blonde. Curtains was fun but too many one-liners. Spring Awakening? As it was mostly faithful to the original source material, it'd be bloody cheeky for it to win here.
