I just saw the show and thought she stole the whole thing. I was hoping someone could explain to me why she wasn't even nominated for a Tony??
How was Andrea Burns ("In the Heights") not nominated for a Tony Award?????

Like this:
"Hey, do you think we should nominate Andrea Burns?"
"No."
"OK."

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

How was Kathryn Hahn (sp?) not nominated for BOEING-BOEING?
How was Anika Noni Rose not nominated for CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF?
How was Erin Davie not nominated for GREY GARDENS?
It happens...we just move on.

It sucks, but I feel like she'll get a nom eventually. She truly is a wonderful performer!

Who would you have eliminated to nominate her?
She was good, but the five women nominated were better.

I LOVE Andrea Burns but I really felt she was a cartoon in a world full of real people in In the Heights....just sayin...

I thought everyone in In the Heights, Burns included, was a cartoon.

Better question: Why wasn't Mary Testa and/or Jackie Hoffman nominated?

Again, I have to ask, who would you eliminate?
de'Adre Aziza?
Laura Benanti?
Andrea Martin?
Olga Merediz?
Loretta Ables-Sayre?
The only of those nominees I would consider eliminating would be de'Adre Aziza, and I wouldn't remove her in favor of Burns. I would, however, do it for a Hoffman/Testa joint nomination, though.

Olga Merediz.
I was NOT overly impressed with her performance and, for me, Andrea Martin didn't do anything.
I would have enjoyed seeing a Testa/Hoffman nomination

de'Adre Aziza Loretta Ables-Sayre and Olga Merediz for Andrea Burns, Mary Testa, and Sherie Rene Scott-personally...
but I would replase de'Adre Aziza for Andrea Burns.
