In this very crowded season, what do you feel was the most underrated play or musical?

Another vote for Signicant Other. Hope Mr. Glick finds all the success he deserves.

I'd like to put in a word for The Encounter. That show was incredible. If Sound Design was a thing this season, it would've easily been nominated, if it didn't win. Simon McBurney was fantastic.
This show was really forgotten about, but it was really good.

Sales wise, I'm saddened that Indecent? hasn't received more attention.

I love you all! I thought I might have been dissed for suggesting Significant Other! Glad to see there were so many other fans.

Another one for Significant Other.
(I'm going to Indecent tomorrow. Just finished reading God of Vengeance.)

I know it received 6 Tony nominations but with it being closed and not that many people talking about it around here but I really loved Jitney, probably my favorite play of the Broadway season so far though I still have to see Sweat, Oslo and Indecent which I'll be seeing over the never couple weeks.

Seems like Six Degrees basically came out of nowhere and no one cared...

Significant Other deserved so much better. I don't believe in Tony "snubs," but Glick not getting a nomination will continue to annoy me for a long time.

Me too, BroadwayConcierge. I almost feel like not watching the telecast because of Mr. Glick's omission.
Now whoever it is that has been commenting my posts with "Calm down, Mary!" when I get passionate about topics can say it again!!

I loved Significant Other, but I feel like it was only underrated awards-wise (Clearly, everyone loves it.) For me it's Miss Saigon, the best show I've ever seen by far.

I'm going to say The Front Page. I know, I know, it had an all-star cast and maybe didn't get the best reviews, but I haven't really seen much love for it among the broadway community or awards for that matter. I have to agree with dianamorales on the point that Significant Other was loved by so many who saw it, just not the awards.

Indecent is my favorite play of the season, and I'm sad that even though it got great reviews it doesn't seem to be selling as well as other shows. If you haven't seen it yet - go now!
I also really really loved Holiday Inn. It was just one of those shows that made me incredibly happy. I could watch Corbin Bleu tap dance all day....

Significant Other -- It's hard to have any enthusiasm for Lead Actor in a Play without Gideon Glick.

Holy god. I just saw Indecent today and it was just the most stunning piece of theater. I almost couldn't catch my breath at the end.
The house was not full at all. I wish more people would go see it. It almost plays like a musical—there is a lot of music and gorgeous singing throughout. I bought my ticket through TodayTix and got front row, center, mezz.
