I really do hope that Raúl wins for Best Actor next year. I don't know the competition yet, obviously, but his Bobby in Company is brilliant.

Block will get the Drama Desk but its next to impossible to beat Ebersole out for the tony next year. I also really believe that it's Raul's time.

Dear American Musical Theatre Wing (or whatever you are called... I don't really know...)

Best replacement Tony to Barrett, please!


Thanks!

:)

Here is a link to this thread from last year when everyone was trying to predict the 2006 Tony nominations for best musical. There is lots of talk of Lestat and The Woman in White and even one poster said that "Lennon could be huge". There is no mention of Jersey Boys or The Drowsy Chaperone but I think someone did mention In My Life..... Go ahead and get a chuckle by reading everyone's premature predictions from last year.

It just goes to show how no one knows what the future holds. Some of these shows we are predicting may be savaged by the critics and although they look great on paper -- might not do so well on stage in NYC. It is still a lot fun to guess though!

I just don't see them awarding Les Miserables for Best Revival when it's the same production, and they have already awarded it Best Musical way back when. Personally, I wish it weren't eligible for Best Revival, but it would be nice to see some of the actors gets nominations.

that's why we're debating over who gets the drama desk!

jimnysf, you forgot to mention that the Nancy Sinatra jukebox musical changed its title from "These Boots Are Made For Walking" during its out of town tryout in Spokane. Its new working title is "Something Stupid". I wonder if the critics will use this in some creative way in their reviews??? LOL

this is so strange

The actors everyone is predicting could suck in the roles there playing

Pirate queen etc could stink and close within a month

how can anyone even try and make predictions

people saying mary poppins should wait to see it first(its playing down the road from the theatre my show is in and ive seen it twice with freinds)and it issnt that great.The sets and costumes are fun but its just another overblown musical with little heart and im guessing by the time all the changes are made to billy elliot(so americans can understand it,that still strikes me as odd)it will be a bit of a mess and lost a lot of its heart

lets see the new shows first guys

ps to the person who said that choros line wouldnt be a critical or comercial hit ...be real ITS A CHORUS LINE of course it will be

1. Mary Poppins
2. Pirate Queen
3. Martin Short
4. Legally Blonde
5. High Fidelity
6. The Times They Are A'Changin
7. Grey Gardens
8. A tale of two cities

are the musicals for next year (so far) and it looks like a great line up!
