Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre Tony Guesses

Its way to early, but I'll play along, based on hype lol.

Best revival:
La Cage... (is there any other ones? I can't even think of one!)
The Wiz (if it ever gets off the ground)

Best Musical:
Spamalot
Little Women
Brooklyn (my pick to win from what I've heard)

And, based on the casting I've heard announced so far, Gary Beach is automatic to win best actor, and Eden or Susan will win Best Actress. I really do think this is a rather slow season on Broadway

Hahaha I was actually thinking about posting this too

hmmmmm

Best Musical: Spamalot; Brooklyn; All Shook Up; Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Best Score: Spamalot; Brooklyn; Dirty Rotten Scoundrels; Little Women

Best Musical Revival: Pacific Overtures; The Wiz; Sweet Charity; La Cage Aux Folles

Best Actress/Actor: Sutton Foster; Nathan Lane; Christina Applegate; Tim Curry / Hank Azaria; John Lithgow; Eden Espinosa

Best Supporting (Musical): Roger Bart; whoever plays Nicki in Sweet Charity; Nobert Leo Butz; Jarrod Emmick

Choreography: I think Sweet Charity will win again...I know Wayne isnt the best but he deserves one. Plus I think he might surprise all of us and choreograph this one VERY well

Hahah yeah i know. Its more like wishful thinking. Shows we want to see get nominated and such

I think he'll be nominated for Best Actor in The Frogs, I dont think he'll win though. I think Roger Bart has a better chance of winning Best Featured Actor for that show. He came in and saved it! Nathan also might be nominated for Best Book of a Musical, even though it's a revival

fun thread....

spamalot for new musical
la cage is almost sure-fire for revival
i have HIGH hopes for Pacific Overtures as well...

i could see both kathleen & bill winning for virginia woolf as well...

for some reason, i think Little Women will bomb....dunno why...maybe i'm just a cynic...

Yeah I dont think it will be well recieved, specially with hits like Wicked and Avenue Q still around. I think it will get nominated and recognized more for its music and actress more than anything

Exactly this is wishful thinking, I think it is kinda fun too lol!

Best Musical: Brooklyn, Spamalot, Little Women, either All Shook Up or Dracula (don't kill me, there is just nothing else out there)

Best Revival: La Cage, Pacific Overatures, Pajama Game, Sweet Charity (I think the Wiz is just a really bad musical, well at least the movie was)

Best Actor: Tom Hewitt,Cleavant Derreks, Tim Curry, Nathan Lane

Best Actress: Sutton Foster, Eden Espinosa , Cristina Applegate, Ramona Keller

Best Feat. Actor/Actress: Don Stephenson, Kelli O'Hara, Roger Bart...

Best Score: Brooklyn, Little Women, Spamalot, Dracula (what else has original music?)

Lighting, Costumes, Set: Dracula

So The Wiz has a better score, because the only song I liked in the show was "Ease on Down" and I hated the Oz song, it was just a stupid take on the horses changing colors.

Wouldn't that be weird two musicals both relating to Oz, Wicked and The Wiz.

Wait, I think you got The Wizard of Oz and The Wiz mixed up. The line "Horse of a different color" and the song The Merry Old Land of Oz is from the Wizard of Oz....did I miss something?

I also love the song "Home" from The Wiz...not when Diana Ross sings it, when Stephanie Mills sings it

Ooooo yeah...well that whole number isnt even in the stage show. The stage show is much much better, believe me. The killed that musical with that movie...and with that cast. I was hoping Anika Noni Rose was going to play Dorothy, i think she turned it down though...Y WOULD SHE DO THAT LOL. I thought ever little girl wanted to be Dorothy

Ooo good point. Maybe. How old is she anyway?
