YES! 
Are they not doing the $10 preview tickets?
And they may as well engrave Sherie's Tony now.

Best Score? I'm asking because I haven't seen the show (yet) and the only other contenders are Memphis and Adams Family.

This really shakes up several Tony races, but especially Best Actress in a Musical. I'm with WiCkEdRoCkS - engrave it now.
Has there been any other time in recent memory when a show was announced only 4 weeks before the end of the season? Also, when was the last time a director had two shows open on Broadway within a 9 day period?

I'm looking forward to hearing the controversy (or reading*, rather) if Scott doesn't get her Tony.
Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

American Idiot can still likely get a nom. for Best Score.

Is more than 50% of AMERICAN IDIOT's score new, and written exclusively for the theatre?
The rule mentioned above was implemented *after* TOMMY tied with SPIDER WOMAN for Best Score.

When have rules ever mattered at the Tony Awards?

More excited about this than Lips Together... Do we know when Access10 tickets will be available?

They will likely petition that rule like Tommy did.

The rule did not exist when Tommy was eligible.

Are they still refunding the tickets for LIPS?

Best book, not best score. This is not original music.
#20
Posted: 4/1/10 at 3:23pm
Yeah, I was gonna say. This will win Best Book I think. And deservedly so. I didn't think it would even be eligible for Best Score.
#21

American Idiot will DEFINITELY not be eligible for Best Score. Neither will Everyday Rapture. But at last... we have a BOOK other than the rest of the atrocities that have invaded Broadway this season.
And yes muscle, Lips is still refunding. It's automatic re-billing to your account.
EDIT TO ADD: Also, do we think this can sneak into the Best Musical category? I would love if it did.

Sherie winning two Tonys in one night?! Overwhelming idea, but I like it a lot!
Also, Tom Kitt is in competition with himself for Orchestrations.

I didn't even like this show (think I might be the only one), and I think it has Best Book in the bag. I adore Fela, but...no. Million Dollar Quartet has one of the most embarassing books I've ever had the misfortune to encounter. Sondheim and Come Fly Away are obviously out. And though I haven't seen American Idiot yet, does it really have a book, or is it pretty much assembled straight from the music? Meaning Rapture's biggest competition would be...The Addams Family?

... and Memphis. Aka Everyday Rapture wins. Lol.
