What is the special honor for the Matilda girls? They get cotton candy and a balloon? And why aren't they again?

So can we start saying Patina Miller has it in her bag now?

This doesn't surprise me at all considering the Matilda's were "snubbed" by the other major theatre award nominating commitees, never understood why posters on here continued to ignore that fact. I am kind of surprised Nielsan and Carvel aren't considered featured and instead will be leading.

Damn, Best Actress in a Play is really gonna be a crazy competition.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Best Actress in a Play just got even more crowded and competitive.

How pissed do we think the producers are of Matilda?

The Maltildas not eligible for a Tony is purely farcical.

Stupid question from the West Coast: why was there a question about Nathan Lane? Is it because he also sings during the play?

^Considering the fact that the Matilda's aren't eligible and now Bertie is up for Leading, I'd say the odds are pretty high.

Lane is billed alphabetically below the title for THE NANCE.

One too many Matildas is why.
A leading actress Tony Award for two performances a week?

SO glad the Matildas are not eligible and how nice of them to go out of their way to recognize them anyway !!!

Emilia Clarke and Cory Michael Smith will be considered eligible for nothing which is what they will get.
I'm kind of surprised about the Nielsen decision too. Might make the leading actress category a little more stiff than we thought.

Well I'm glad they saw the light on the issue of the Matildas.
And Bertie has best actor I think.
Now best actress in a play got tight...and featured got more open. Light might just repeat.
I also say watch out for Laura Osnes...although I give Patina the edge.

I don't think there ever was a question. It's just that the Tony committee has to decide these things regardless of whether or not there's some ambiguity.
Do we know why exactly the girl aren't eligible?

Looks like the committee just sealed Patina’s win, but reopened the competition for Leading Actor in a Musical. It’s now a race between Porter & Carvel (I am sure Porter is disappointed at this ruling).
Pulling for Nielsen in such a tight category!

Nielsen should have stayed in Featured. I do think Bertie Carvel will get it, and obviously Patina will win. Honestly the only thing I really care about is Cumming winning for Macbeth, and I'm pretty sure that will be the case.

I really wanted a Nielsen win, but I just don't see it happening in Leading Actress.

Surprised by both Porter and Nielsen for "leading" consideration.
