Well, of course I adore Greg and DRS, but in the Tonys defense, the featured actor category was PACKED last year!
Dan Folger, Matt Morrison, Chris Sieber, and Marc Kudish were all very worthy of their nominations. The Michael McGrath nomination was a little surprising, but I think most people felt Christian Borle was the one who deserved that nomination. So he was left out, as was Jesse Tyler Ferguson of Spelling Bee, Michael Benjamin Washington of La Cage Aux Folles. It was just a great year for featured actors.
So while I'm okay with Greg being left out, I'm still upset that Dan won over Matt.
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
