I'm pretty upset War Paint didn't get a best score nomination.

Shocked Janney was snubbed, but the category was rough.
THRILLED Eva Noblezada got in. She was truly a highlight of the season for me.
Mike Faist seems to be the shocker of the morning, but it's a great performance.
SO HAPPY Brandon Uranowitz got in for FALSETTOS.

Thrilled that the entire cast of Doll's House was recognized!

Also: they seem to have spelled Lucas Steele's name wrong.

did anyone think Charlie was going to get any love
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Some odd choices in terms of which categories went with 3, 4 or 5 nominees.
I would say Amelie certainly will post a June-ish closing notice, if not sooner. Not sure about some of the others, but am surprised by a handful of these.

DottieD'Luscia said: "Why are people saying Allison Janney was snubbed? She's listed on Broadway.com as getting a nomination for leading actress in a play."
The nominees are Blanchett, Metcalf, Linney, Ehle, and Field.

Broadway.com needs to correct that. They have six nominees listed in the leading actress in a play category.

Happy for all nominated for Falsettos, Eva Noblezada, Oslo nominated folks.
Surprised about no featured actresses for Comet, no Mary Louise Parker.
Pleasantly surprised with Holiday Inn choreo nom.
Overall THRILLED for all the Comet noms though. If it doesn't win Best Lighting at the very least I will throw things at the television.

So glad that Denis Jones got the choreography nomination for Holiday Inn. Well-deserved!

I did not see Mike Faist coming!
So excited for Falsettos cast. Especially Stephanie and Brandon who were the unexpected standouts for me!

Disappointed in no Amber Gray.
VERY disappointed in no Gideon Glick.
Also, Anastasia only got two nominations! Crazy.

The biggest thrill for me is 8 Tony Nominations for DOLLS HOUSE PT 2. I do hope that will sell some tickets for them. So much for the sentiment that COMET was going to be shut out. With 12 Tony nominations its arguably the front runner. Not surprised by the lack of love for CHARLE or ANASTASIA, though I'm happy Mary Beth Piel was recognized (the one great thing about that production in my view). No nominations for SUNSET? I suppose they really did view that as a concert.
