...was the standout of Book of Mormon (one of the many highlights)! He was freaking hilarious and was perfect for the role!

Is the role big enough to get a Tony nod?
I loved how his comedic moments were usualy subtle and in the background.
this show needs to blow-up already so i can watch online promo material, recordings, youtubes, etc... i cant get enough!

Posted: 3/22/11 at 10:53amAgreed, Rory steals every scene he's in! I enjoy him more and more every time. Hoping he gets a featured actor nod. His comedic moments (especially the bit at the end when he brings Elder Price and Cunningham to their living space) kill me.

Posted: 3/22/11 at 11:04amIf I had my way, I'd see the entire ensemble nominated for a Tony. A shame they don't do that.

Posted: 3/22/11 at 11:08amHe definitely deserves a supporting actor nod. He was terrific.

Posted: 3/22/11 at 3:48pmIs he officially the most Irish performer on Broadway right now? If not, his name and overall gingerness must put him in at least the top 3, right? (Note: I am a ginger person with freckles, so please don't take offense.)

“Turn It Off” is a hilarious chorus-line piece about repression, performed by the (all-male Mormon) missionaries and destined to make a star of its lead singer and dancer, Rory O’Malley (whose character is repressed in his own special way). - New York Times
... called it!

Posted: 3/27/11 at 6:53pmI hope he gets a Tony nod. The role was small, but extremely memorable.

Posted: 3/27/11 at 7:00pmHe's hilarious and deserves a nomination, for sure. I agree with Kad. The ensemble of this show is the best reason I can think of to institute a Best Ensemble Tony award. They are the heart of the show, truly. They are the reason so much of it works so incredibly well.
