The "other critics" Tony Predictions....

Some aren't critics, but you get the point.
I am just SHOCKED that Wayman Wong predicts Memphis for Best Musical and Glover for Best Actress.

Pretty depressing list.

I'm pretty sure David Bryan is insane. Have you seen the tony awards unplugged with him singing and playing. And the crazy riffing.

Insane? Bec.of the way he sang it? lol

If you ask me: he deserves getting some Awards on Sunday.

He is the hell of a musician! (and a very nice and humble person!)

Wow. I just realized if all these predictions were correct, FELA would walk away empty handed and MEMPHIS would take, what, FIVE awards?

This season, I tell ya...

Actually, if all of these were correct, FELA would be getting Best Choreography. It's not much, but it isn't empty handed.

I am shocked by the Featured Actor in a Musical predictions. Not one for Steggert or Fitzgerald. After Chris won the Drama Desk, I would have guessed a few critics would have predicted him. Instead, there is an overwhelming belief that Levi will win. I'm shocked.

David Bryan, while maybe being insane, is indeed one hell of a musician. I'm happy he's finally landed on Broadway.

I hope Levi Kreis does win the Tony. He is tremendously talented and electrifying in Million Dollar Quartet, granted I'm only speaking from the videos. On a side note, check out his album, it is amazing.

And in this poll , Fela takes 5 Tonys and Memphis 1 !

False. The Drowsy Chaperone in 2006.

At least Best Actor in a Play and Best Actress in a Musical are both tight races this year. Arguably, other categories as well.

Despite a "weak" season, the awards show should be a bit more exciting than, say, in a "sweep" year, like The Producers.

Regardless, I'm sure some people will find plenty to bitch about. It's either "How predictable!" or "I can't believe she won!" They're either pissed that it's a boring show, because everyone they thought would win did, or they're shocked and disappointed that their choices were overlooked (also known as a "shut out" around here).

I'm looking forward to watching the show. Both on TV and on the boards.
