...why hasn't In the Heights been nominated for ANYTHING this year? The Drama Desk Noms came out today and nothing! The Outer Critics Circle had no noms, and etc. Is it due to the off-broadway run last year? I've been discussing this with a friend and we can't seem to figure it out.

You're forgiven, moron. 
From the Drama Desk website:
"In the Heights, which was distinguished with multiple nominations and awards last season, was considered only for new elements in the current Broadway production."
Ta-da!

Posted: 4/28/08 at 10:53amAlot of people have been saying it's due to the Off Broadway run, but I'm certain that the show will be a big contendor for Tonys.

LOL Weez. 
Yes, it's because of the off-Broadway run last year.

I am, too. These awards (Drama Desk, OCC, etc.) consider off-Broadway AND Broadway. The off-Broadway run hasn't got a thing to do with the Tonys.
