Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:21pmThis 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.

Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:23pmThe Maltildas not eligible for a Tony is purely farcical.

Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:24pmStupid question from the West Coast: why was there a question about Nathan Lane? Is it because he also sings during the play?

Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:24pm^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.

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

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.

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

""Emilia Clarke and Cory Michael Smith will be considered eligible in the Best Performance by a Actress/Actor in a Leading Role in a Play categories for their respective performances in Breakfast at Tiffany's.""
YAAAAYY!!!! while the play wasnt the greatest, they were very good!

Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:34pmNielsen 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.

Posted: 4/26/13 at 2:34pmI really wanted a Nielsen win, but I just don't see it happening in Leading Actress.
