Same and for Mercedes Ruehl as well. :/ I'm thrilled Torch Song got nominated for Best Play revival though!

I was also surprised about Mockingbird not getting Best Play nomination. I thought it would have been between Ferryman and Mocknigbird to win Best Play but obviously not given Mockingbird wasn't even nominated.

So excited for Jeremy Pope!!

TKAM aside, the other biggest shock to me is Glenda Jackson. And no Featured Actors from The Ferryman.

Other than Mockingbird, the big story to me is the crazy number of nominations Ain't Too Proud received. Direction? Really?

Shocked at the amount of noms for Beetlejuice and Ain't Too Proud and the lack of love for Be More Chill.  Very happy with all the love for Gary.

I guess I have to see Ain't Too Proud now! So so thrilled for Caitlin from The Prom!!

I LOVE Lillie Cooper but there were a few other performances I would have thought would be nominated. But Congrats to her! She was good!

The TKAM snub seems like the only shocker. Anything else?

The lack of nominations for Be more chill... wow. Saw it and didn’t like it but I know lots of their teen fans are going to be upset

I was surprised Kritzer wasn’t nominated for beetlejuice

Well, there’s no 12 year olds on the nominating committee, so...

And no Glenda is crazy! Imagine being Ruth Wilson this morning...

I'm happy Andy Grotelueschen is nominated for his charming performance, and I'm happy Patrick Page finally has a nomination after years of solid performances..

No Vaill for supporting actor in musical.  Thought his Judd Frye would be nominated.

There's so much to process, but a double nod for Jeremy Pope is such a thrill!

[Markecib]

Posted: 4/30/19 at 8:57am

All these Beetlejuice noms and not one for Leslie Krtizer?! That would be the only one that would make sense.

[Mike Barrett]

Posted: 4/30/19 at 8:58am

Wow, I could not be any happier for Jeremy Pope. A true star in the making!!!

Shocked about TKAM, also shocked that Glenda Jackson was not nominated.

Bummed about Jonny Lee Miller, he was phenomenal. I would've subbed him for Adam Driver, who was very good, if one-note.

But no Nathan Lane?!

- surprised Be More Chill was shut out entirely except for score; its score had its moments, and Salazar was great.

- the Oklahoma! love didnt really carry through for Rebecca Naomi Jones or Patrick Vaill.

- Lilli Cooper was lovely but that nomination is somewhat ridiculous given how little she is given to do- and makes me think Tootsie has a better shot than we thought this year (though the lack of nomination for John Behlmann is disappointing)--- I have heard time and again that Leslie Kritzer steals the show...

- interesting they reached back to Janet McTeer to pass over Glenda Jackson

...these are bizarre 

[poisonivy2]

Also shocked no Patrick Vail.

[IdinaBellFoster]

Posted: 4/30/19 at 9:03am

A lot to celebrate but some head scratching/weird things:

They REALLY loved AIN'T TO PROUD...

Thrilled for the Jeremy Pope double nomination.

I understand why Rebecca Naomi Jones has been divisive, but the snub for Patrick Vaill in OKLAHOMA! is really a shame. After Stroker he was the highlight for me.

7 nominations for GARY but Lane couldn't crack the line-up.

This is the second time Ruth Wilson is her play's sole nominee.

Is 9 now the most nominations received by a production that wasn't nominated for one of the top categories?

WOW! Where to begin?

-So excited and shocked for Lilli Cooper and Caitlin K.!

-Glad that Be More Chill at least gotten Best Score. Their songs never left my head. Disappointed that George didn't get in. The fandom must be raging.

-Really happy that all of the Temptations got nominated though. Good for them!

-Really kicking myself for not seeing ATP at the Kennedy Center last year.

-Shout outs to Samantha Barks and Sophie Ann Caruso. They deserved to be nominated so much!

-Glad to see King Kong got a bit of love.

-Disappointed Leslie didn't get in, but Mary Testa must have been worth the slot then.

I most underestimated Ain’t Too Proud and Beetlejuice. I’m so excited for Caitlin Kinnunen! The fact that Lilli Cooper got in even thought her role is so poorly written proves she’s AMAZING. More surprised by Andy Grotelueschen, I don’t understand the love for the performance. Also proud of Ali Stroker!
