Why wasn't Cherry Jones nominated?? Was she not eligible or is it just stupid?

So "Lady Day" IS a musical or a play with some songs?

Jessie's hair reminds me a bit of Adele there. I just love her voice.

It's a play with music. Could this have been considered a solo show if, like she said, she's the only cast member (besides a dog)?

I kind of have a feeling Jessie's going to win tonight... That's a tough category, it seems.

I have a strong feeling Kelli's going to upset and finally get her due.

I love them both. I don't know how anyone can decide.

I could see that, too, but BEAUTIFUL has gotten a lot of love tonight.

It's interesting about Jessie. I loved her in the show, she sang it beautifully, and held the whole thing together. But it was interesting hearing her sing tonight, sans hair and costume( ala Carole). Again she sounded great, and a lot like King. BUT, thats's where i think it ends, based on a very bad book. It's not really the Best Actress in Musical type of role. Again, i love Jessie Mueller, and think she'll have a wonderful career, awardee this week, or not.

Maybe we will all get our wishes granted and there will be a Jessie/Kelli Tie!

I think people are underestimating BEAUTIFUL altogether. I do think Jessie will win the Tony...and there's a strong chance it'll win Best Musical as well.

Have folks completely forgotten the absolute raves that Sutton Foster received for Violet?

I think with Gentleman's Guide strong book, score, performances, designs, etc. it will most likely win Best tonight and next Sunday.

I am very excited to see Sutton and Idina this weekend!

Damn these got REAL boring. It's already 2 hours in and we have all the good awards left! The past hour was like completely wasted. The Drama Desks should not be as long as the Tonys!

And you can tell she has a really good heart underneath that snarky-ness.

As brilliant as Audra is, the category drives me CRAZY. She should be nominated for a musical. That should have been Tyne's award.

^^Glad I'm not alone! But I agree with another poster...why wasn't Cherry in there?? She at least belongs among the powerhouse performances of this season.
