Broadway's Oklahoma! was perceived to be largely inferior to the acclaimed production at London's National Theatre. Mamma Mia! is not the type of show that would win (or even need) Tony Awards, since it's still here while Millie, Urinetown and Sweet Smell of Success have all long departed. And Joe Egg was a well-regarded production, but Long Day's Journey Into Night was both critically acclaimed AND a box office smash, which pretty much solidified its Tony wins. To paraphrase Pickering, I think you've picked three poor examples.

I would hope that Raul gets at least a nod for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Theatreguy2, your multiple repeated posted gave me a good chuckle considering the eden-bashing. I just put her on my list because there was a vacant spot in that catagory... What is about this girl that people love? Surely it isn't her acting or cheated belting....

I wonder if Chitty will be nominated for anything...

If Virginia Woolf opens in time we could see a sweep there too.

SOOOO many play revivals this season!
