I think it has been clear for months that there are 2 other shows that are the main competition for Best Revival, and other performers the leading favorites for best actor.

The best that will come from this production is a new cast recording, that may make the show better known once it circulates widely, and/or gets onto the radar of Tik Tok kids across the country. Jordan should continue to do well touring, and we may see more regional productions of FC.

So much advance planning goes into producing a revival like this & as much as they might hope to reach an a audience,  sometimes - unfortunately - it just doesn't match the zeitgeist.  Ostentatious & shallow shows are what sell. 

Kudos to Jordan for leaving a sure thing, & probably better pay, in Great Gatsby for something more artistic. But, I think kudos & all around are all he will get for this - no big award.

There is very good availability every night for this show and he's touring with his band starting next month. Everyone who wanted to see it mostly has by now so it really has no reason to extend. This is not My Fair Lady nor is it Camelot. This will close when they stated it will unless something happens where there is a huge surge of interest, which the Tonys won't do for this one.
