I think that this didn't merit a new thread.

The bigger question is......................should it win the Tony?

Or, should it "basically" win the Tony?

Is there a specific thread dedicated to this show? We have not seen it. Could you link to it?

I don't think there's any wrong choice for Best Musical this season. I think each show brings its own unique brand of goodness to Broadway, and that's something we need.

Totally! Every show has done a spectacular job. All of these new unique shows are like a breath of fresh air. Though, we think this one, it has gone above and beyond. At least in attempting to use each part of theater distinctively to tell it's story.

There are many - just click on "Search" and type "Natasha" or "Pierre" or "Comet," and you'll see a slew.

Thanks yo! Didn't know you could find other threads like that (can you tell we're new haha). Though it doesn't look like there is a conversation for what we're trying to talk about specifically. We want to talk about who people think should win the Tony for best musical and why. Do you have a favorite this year?

Dear Evan Hansen means the most to me, personally. Come From Away is probably the best written show, overall. And Great Comet is definitely the most enjoyable experience. I, personally, didn't enjoy Groundhog Day, but I adamantly respect the things it did. Such a hard call this season, and there's no wrong decision. Last season (even though I personally preferred Bright Star), it would've been a travesty for Best Musical to go to anything other than Hamilton. But this season, it's anyone's game. And I love that!

Playing the thread police seems so exhausting. But if it makes y'all happy, go for it. :)

Yes, copying and pasting really is physically exhausting.

Or rather, it would be, if one were a lazy millennial.

I agree that it should win the Tony. But I wouldn't be upset if any of the other three gets it though.

If there had been no year of tent shows, if Great Comet had opened last month cold after ART, there is no doubt in my mind this extraordinary show would have been a contender (meaning it would have taken the place of either Evan or Away as the "two to beat" for Best Musical). It's lovely that a show so "old" garnered as many nominations as it did.
