boy, it's going to be a long night for you...

one week... we can do it.

Posted: 5/29/05 at 9:54pm

Cherry Jones and Christina Applegate are the only ones I agree with and Applegate I wouldn't bet on. Doubt as Best Play and 12 Angry Men as revival are as close to sure thangs as we get this season, I think.

I don't think Victoria Clark is a lock. They can certainly pull a "Tonys 2004" - and Christina can easily win this award. They are both worthy.

I'm sorry you haven't had an oppurtunity to see ANY shows this season...

[Kevo711]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 10:44pm

umm... not sure about those predictions... PhantomMag what shows have you seen this season? just curious...

[PhantomMag234]

None. I live in California

[Liz_Bennet]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 10:51pm

What made you choose Gem? Really- I'm curious. And why the most unknown of the three Glengarry nominees?

[My Fair Lady]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 10:52pm

From what I've heard about Christina....no.

[PhantomMag234]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 10:55pm

Well the reason I chose La Cage aux Follies was because it won all the other awards!

Posted: 5/29/05 at 10:59pm

Um...I think a lot of those predictions are going to be wrong, come June 5th.

I'm almost positive that Norbert Leo Butz will win for best actor in a musical... i'm leaning toward DRS or Spamalot for Best musical... and best play will most likely be Doubt... revival of a play-proabably 12 angry men.

[Kevo711]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 11:14pm

and plus most that Margo said! lol

[PhantomMag234]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 11:14pm

What about Kelli O'Hara? What about her chances?

[inlovewithjerryherman]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 11:17pm

Here's mine, I think they're more likely.

Best Play:
Doubt

Best Musical:
Spamalot, but I'd like to see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

Play Revival:
Unsure, Twelve Angry Men or Glengarry Glen Ross

Musical Revival:
La Cage Aux Folles

Best Actor (Play):
Bryan F. O'Byrne or Billy Crudup

Best Actress (Play):
Cherry Jones

Best Actor (Musical):
Norbert Leo Butz

Best Actress (Musical):
Victoria Clark, but Christina could sneak one.

Featured Actor (Play):
Alan Alda

Featured Actress (Play):
Adrianne Lenox

Featured Actor (Musical):
This could seriously be anyone, but for fun I'll say Marc Kudish.

Featured Actress (Musical):
I originally thought Sara Ramirez had this locked, but it looks pretty tight now. Keili O' Hara or Jan Maxwell could snatch it.

Director (Play):
Doug Hughes

Director (Musical):
Mike Nichols, but I'd like Jack O'Brien to get it.

[MargoChanning]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 11:17pm

Ramirez is the favorite.
Jan Maxwell is the dark horse.

O'Hara will get votes and has a shot.

We'll see.

[Kevo711]

Posted: 5/29/05 at 11:20pm

featured actress in a musical for me is the hardest to predict... i thought ramirez, but she wasnt even nominated for Drama Desk Awards... i still think Ramirez could pull it off though...

After seeing all the nominees for best leading actress, I really feel that Victoria is a shoe-in at this point. Out of all of them (Sutton, Sherie, Christina and Dilly) she certainly has the best chance and deserves it the most.
