Tony Nominated Roles with Little or No Dialogue

Although it is a tense and important scene with dialogue, it is actually only 8 minutes. I am speaking of Adriane Lenox's scene in "Doubt". It was the first role that came to mind. I remember people talking about how short but powerful her performance was. I saw it, and it was. And she won the Tony for it.

Just because Lenox’s role is small doesn’t mean that it counts, as she’s talking throughout all her stage time.

Also, Helen Keller would be a valid example except while Patty Duke won the Oscar for her work in the film, her work on Broadway was snubbed at the Tonys. In terms of great silent roles, she applies though. Thinking about it now, maybe that’s what this thread should’ve been called, as just going by Tony nominations excludes things a bit.

Yes, I am aware of that. I mentioned that in my comment. Whether it "counts" or not, it came to mind and I shared my thoughts.
