#25Tony Predictions: No Guts No Glory
Posted: 5/2/11 at 6:38pmBloody Bloody Andrew Jackson and Scottsboro Boys get best musical noms.
#26Tony Predictions: No Guts No Glory
Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:27pm
John Cullum gets nominated for Featured Actor for Scottsboro Boys. I'm also predicting noms for Scottsboro for Musical, Score, Director, Choreographer, and Orchestrations, so 6 in total.
I think Catch Me is getting snubbed for Musical/Book/Score, with WOTV taking its score slot, although I think Butz and Butler are both getting noms, and possibly Wopat as well.
I think Arcadia is getting shut out. as will That Championship Season, Wonderland, and possibly Ghetto Klown among currently running shows.

#27Tony Predictions: No Guts No Glory
Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:28pmTwo nominations for Good People in Best Supporting Actress in a Play. Some combination of Becky Ann Baker, Estelle Parsons, and Reneé Elise Goldsberry. Really pulling for Goldsberry.

#28Tony Predictions: No Guts No Glory
Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:35pmI think snubs for Catch Men and Priscilla are possible. I also think Ranellis might be the sole Best Actor nominee from Mormon (have this feeling Gad might be snubbed). Women on the Verge has picked up such momentum in the past few days I think Sherie will take the 4th Best Actress slot and Lupone and Benanti will be in featured.

Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:45pmI love Sherrie Rene Scott, but how can Tony voters vote for her when her show closed suddenly and not enough voters had a chance to see her? I thought voters needed to see all the shows in a category to cast a vote.

Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:49pmWOTV did not "close suddenly". It had an end date scheduled from the beginning and that's when it closed.

Posted: 5/2/11 at 7:57pmThe show closed three weeks early. Here is a reminder from earlier in the year that was reported in the press: http://www.playbill.com/news/article/146172-Broadways-Women-on-the-Verge-of-a-Nervous-Breakdown-Will-Close-Early

That's not quite true. In fact I had tickets to see it on 1/16, but it closed two weeks ahead of schedule and so we were issued refunds.
I did see the second preview and I enjoyed the score and many of the performances. Wish I had been able to see it in its final form.
EDIT: Oops, looks like you beat me to it, and I think you're right about 3 vs. 2 weeks. :)

I believe it was supposed to close on January 23, but closed on January 2 instead. The cast got about a week's notice of the new closing date.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

I would love that, or Aimee-Ffion Edwards. Both of their scenes are really amazing.

Karen Mason for Best Supporting Actress in a musical.
When the critics weren't gulping down bucketfuls of Wonderland's blood, they would take a breath for a quick word of praise for her. She is amazing, after all!
"Karen Mason, tastier than blood" ...bad taste?
yuck yuck!

Posted: 5/2/11 at 10:36pmWonderland is nominated for Best Musical. It's cute, it's family friendly, it's already had a rich life in regional theater, and the actors are singing the crap out of the score.

The Normal Heart takes 3 of the Featured Actor slots (for Pace, Hickey, and Parsons).
The Tonys people give the puppets of War Horse a Special Tony rather than trying to figure out what category they go in (since the "Best Props" category doesn't exist).
