#broadway Hollywood stars don't make OCC nominations except Michelle Williams. Idina Menzel frozen out

If that's true, that's a big snub.

I wonder if that includes Washington. I'm assuming it does.

Aladdin for best book? Oy!

How the hell is Cabaret eligible for Best Revival?

[bwayphreak234]

Posted: 4/22/14 at 12:00pm

Aladdin nominated over Bridges or Bullets?

[tazber]

Posted: 4/22/14 at 12:01pm

That doesn't surprise me so much. It generally got better reviews that either of the other two.

[bjh2114]

Posted: 4/22/14 at 12:03pm

Yah, that's not a surprise. I would expect Bridges over Bullets based on the reviews, but Aladdin got better reviews than both.

So Lady Day is OFFICIALLY a Musical??? Does this put Audra in the "Best Actress in A Musical" Tony category??

They are all up.

And Idina got SNUBBED?! Ouch.

THESE ARE NOT THE TONYS!

Grrrr...

In my mind, the frontrunners for Best Director of a Play (John Tiffany) and Best Featured Actress in a Play (Celia Keenan-Bolger) were snubbed.

Les Miserables for direction and lighting? Wow.

[bjh2114]

Posted: 4/22/14 at 12:11pm

blaxx, I know they're not the Tonys. But the Administration committee has yet to rule on Lady Day, and this could influence their choice to classify it as a musical vs. a play.

Other strange observations... Rylance for LEADING for Twelfth Night, McKellan for No Man's Land rather than Godot, and Les Miserables for DIRECTION? Strange.

Idina didn't really get snubbed. The competition was fierce.

Audra got her slot.

But I can't think of a single one of those 5 ladies who doesn't 100% deserve their noms.

I say this every year, but it's worth repeating...

This is the organization that extends membership to Corrine.

I wouldn't worry much about these nominations.

Bridges, Bullets and If/Then all pushed under a bus.

A weird mix of nominees, per usual from Outer Critics, and I doubt we'll see very many duplicated next week.
