I searched all over the internet I could not find anything I was just wondering what did Rent beat out at the 1996 tony awards for best musical?

Wow, I've never even heard of "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" or "Swinging on a Star."

Snubbed that year for nominations: Big, Victor/Victoria, and State Fair. Any one of the three would have been preferable to the slight revue that was Swinging on a Star, but nothing had a shot at beating Rent.

BIG??
Absolutely not. Such a wreck.
I saw that **** and it was awful!
The BIG score eventually grew on me (as a guilty pleasure, next to the AIDA score) but the show itself is terrible!

When you see the only way to transition him from a child to an adult is by the company singing "your wish is granted!", you know the show is bad. I mean honestly, why?

We're doing Big this year at our community theater so hopefully we can make it a good show.

Oh.
Is that the community theatre that travtrev2 and MusicalTheatreFan3 are a part of?

not that I know of ROFL.
On a separate note I do really like the score for Big and think it can be staged well. I however haven't read the script yet.

I actually had a good time at Big. With 12 more years of life under my belt I realize now it's not a very good show, but seriously, Swinging on a Star?

I'd never heard of Chronicle of a Death Foretold or Swinging On a Star before.

I still think that Big is one of the greatest musicals ever written. Of course I am biased because it was my first show and is the show that got me into becoming a musical theatre fan.
But, honestly. I thought that Big got the nom for best musicals because I remember it performed at the Tonys.
