After seeing Ragtime recently I wouldn’t count Nichelle out. The material in Lost Boys doesn’t compare lift wise, though I’m a complete fan of Shoshana.

I'm generally not a Shoshana fan, but I found her performance in Lost Boys elevated the material. She was able to imbue the show with heart and humanity the rest of the show is sorely lacking. I'd be thrilled if she were to win. I've never understood the praise for Nichelle's performance and a win for her would be wholly unearned IMO.

I thought Nichelle was amazing and is maybe suffering from being compared to Audra McDonald, who she is completely different from. 
 

But I do agree that Shoshana completely elevated what she had to work with in Lost Boys. She was the best part of a pretty full show, and I think her being nominated without wins in recent years will push her towards a win this year. It’s an award with cumulative context

Wholly unearned is pretty darn dramatic. The woman is singing her face off at the very least in an extremely misguided production. There's some flat vocals on that Ragtime stage and she's not one of them. Let's be real.

Shoshana is going to win because she's exceptional in the part. Wild got some of the biggest applause of the evening. She is perfect for the role, Caissie is perfect in hers and both are going to win Tonys, so the correct choice was made. You can try to reduce her to a "woman in the kitchen role" but she's going to win a Tony and you're just the ass in this story.

Correct. Both women are brilliant, but Shoshana absolutely elevated every scene she was in.
