Once more, Tony nomination day is upon us.
Every year we get all this outrage from posters who think that their indignation for the nominations justifies starting a number of threads which make the boards impossible to follow and unreadable.
So, before you post your "How could (your favorite performer) be nominated over (performer you think sucked)?" thread or your WHAT WERE THEY THINKING????? rant or your (Name of the show you worship) was robbed! thread , just post all your frustrations here!
Vent, rant, bitch - but , please, don't start a new thread just because you think you can. :)
Thanks, loves.
(And yes, I include this same message every year.)

Bernadette Peters was robbed!!!!
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

THE ILLUSIONISTS GOT BEST MUSICAL???
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

The discussion afterward confirmed that Fun Home and AiP each have 12 noms, followed by Rotten with 10.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
