Shuler Hensley in Tarzan?
perhaps Brian Charles Rooney (as Lucy Brown) and/or Chris Innvar (as Tiger Brown) in "The Threepenny Opera"
Jim Dale is listed above the title for Threepenny - I have a feeling he may be nominated as a leading actor. Mr.Peachum is a HUGE role in that show, it's not really a featured role.
If Manoel DOESN'T win, my fist is going through a wall.
This category has been the one that breaks my heart for the past two years. No more!

*roots for Mano*
shuler hensley is going to be great in tarzan. you all have something to look forward to, he's fantastic in his role.
i'm sure he'll get a nomination.
As of right now, Mano's name is already engraved on this year's Tony.
I hope Mano wins it. His performance is briliant and very differnt and I think that he's a lock as of now.
I know most of you haven't seen it yet, but Danny Burstein as the tired "Latin lover" Adolpho should be a shoe-in for a nomination in "The Drowsy Chaperone."
He is absolutely, brilliantly hilarious.

I saw Sweeney yesterday and focused a lot of my attention on Manoel during the show, as it was my second time seeing it. He MUST get the Tony for his performance. I will be highly upset if he does not. But I feel very confident that the voters will agree that he deserves it.
Kevin Cahoon is great in Wedding Singer, in a horribly written role. I'd like to see him get a nod, since he's been building a great body of work for some time.
