2016 Fred and Adele Astaire Awards

The nominations just came out today and it truly puzzled me how Alex Brightman and Daveed Diggs can be nominated as Best Male Dancer this season...anyone NOT agree? Mind you, if this was a Best Mover award, perhaps I would not question it.

Anyway, there are some great dancers nominated that  truly deserve it.

I think that Matthew Moorision should have been nominated last year. He had so many big dance sequences in Finding Neverland and mentioned having to take ice baths several times a week. It's such a physically taxing role.

Ice baths? Like Patty Duke in VALLEY OF THE DOLLS?

This nominations are usually very varied and spread out and yes, many good "movers" have been nominated before.

This is so hilarious to read after listening to Daveed explain the choreography process on a podcast the other day. Talking about how it was quickly realized he didn't know what he was doing, so they had him show how he'd get from point A to point B, doing his own thing, the choreographed around that to blend it in and make it work.
