Wow, that was a really tight race between Sutton and Victoria. I was hoping it would have been Sutton. Ah well

Any poll with DRS winning best score is a silly poll.
Yay Clark and Butz!

These are just for fun guys. I guarentee people who voted for Brooklyn for best anything and Scoundrels for score, don't know all the shows. I'm sure most people said "ohhh I like this show, let me vote for it. I have no idea whether the other shows are good or not cause I know nothing about them, but I'll still vote for the one I saw and liked". This was a little fun, but "The fans have spoken..." probably doesn't hold much weight here.

I can't believe that only 8 votes were between Victoria and Sutton

It reflects the skewed sample we have here, admanrich.

I'm surprised Mike Nichols won over James Lapine for Best Direction in a Musical. I thought "theatre fans" would recognize Lapine's contribution to SPELLING BEE is more substantial than Nichol's work in SPAMALOT.

I knew that we at least love to see DRS won as best musical.
Go DRS

Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

BlueWizard, I believe it is. But I think everyone just fell into the hype and automatically put his name down. I know I voted for Lapine.

I think there may be a surprise for Best Actress at the tonys.
I predict Sherie Renee wins or Sutton.

Steven...why did you vote Lapine? I find his direction to be extremely ADD and if you're not in the center seats, you watch backs for 2 hours! I think he really missed a great opportunity with this one. I do love the man though, Sunday in the Park is my bible.

Holy crap...Norbert won by almost 1000 votes?!?! I love it.
As for an upset at the Tonys for Best Actress...I've been telling everyone I think it's gonna happen (which means that if I am saying it...it WON'T happen). I don't know though...I've been reading a lot of things lately that have Christina Applegate gaining on Ms. Clark.
