The 78th Annual Tony Award Nominations for 2025 — Page 2

I think Home is going to get that 4th revival slot. I had a funny feeling about it last night. And now Kit Connor has missed lead actor despite nominations at Drama League and OCC. I feel like he was the reason to love Romeo and Juliet. And clearly Othello is dead. Which means the open revival slot is probably Home as a way to honor the playwright who passed away shortly before performances started.

Thanks, not usually up at this hour haha. I had only found a billboard article directing me to Paramount+.

First batch and only a few surprises, but they are notable:

No surprises in Play or Musical, but I would have happily ditched Death Becomes Her for RWHC or Boop. Also think JOB deserved a spot in there.

Surprised Clooney beat out Gyllenhaal, but otherwise pretty much as predicted. Zero surprises in Actress-Play.

Dont remember what it takes to get six nominees, but Helen Shen's omission stings. Way more surprised that David Hyde Pierce was overlooked for James Monroe Inglehart, whose performance in a middling show was overshone by his standby's.... very strange. I would have expected Grey Henson to get in there before JMI.

The Tonys site just directs to their YouTube page https://www.youtube.com/@tonyawards but there isn't a livestream up on it yet

It’s up as a Premiere.

They started late, AND start with this interminable intro?

Thank you for this!

The snubs of Helen J Shen and David Thaxton had me so surprised. Also no choreography for Sunset Boulevard?? I suppose most of the thrill least directional but still I think they deserved a nod

Maybe it makes up for her completely unjustified win for Skeleton Crew lol
