How many of this year's Tony Nominated Shows have you seen?

Posted: 6/5/04 at 6:14pm

There was a post like this last year at Tony-time, and it was interesting to see who could REALLY make the best guess as to who would win. Sadly enough, I've only seen Wonderful Town, Assassins, and Wicked(twice). OH, and Little Shop of Horrors(twice). What have you seen?

I've seen Wicked, Little Shop of Horrors, and will be seeing Assassins at 2:00 tomorrow. So I'm kind of in the same boat as you!

I'm bad, but only WICKED and AVENUE Q. I will see ASSASSINS next time I go to NYC.

I will probably never be able to say this again in my life, but I made three trips to New York (from Louisville) in the past year, and I have seen all the nominated Musicals!
I am really pulling fro Ave Q and Caroline!

I'm slightly ashamed to admit I have only seen Little Shop and Wicked because when I say that I want Idina to win best actress I really am just being biased and I can't judge fairly enough. I would have seen more had I had the time but I am seeing Avenue Q and possibly Caroline Or Change soon so I'm very excited.

Does seeing Little Shop at Coral Gables count?

re: How many of this year's Tony Nominated Shows have you seen?

Posted: 6/6/04 at 12:56am

Well, Coral Gables counts sorta -- different director and different cast (other than Hunter), but hey, maybe what you saw was better than what ended up here......

AUDREY II deserved a nomination at least as much as anything else in this production! :)

Not to be rude, but it's shorter than you think. Gypsy was nominated last year, so that doesn't count towards the Tonys 2004. So, you've really only seen 3 of this years Tony nominated shows.
