Tony Snubs

Go...

War Paint for best score 

I think the Tony nominating committee essentially viewed SUNSET as a limited engagement concert production. The big event was Glenn's return and she wasn't eligible so perhaps they just didn't pay it much attention to it.

Obviously they didn't care much for CHARLIE, AMELIE, ANASTASIA or BRONX TALE.

 

Furious that Christy was snubbed for Anastasia! And shout outs to John Bolton and Jon Jon Broines. 

I'm also really surprised Kate Whoriskey wasn't nominated. I thought she was a sure thing and not Gold. I guess they just really liked ADHP2.

Jon Jon Briones, Gideon Glick, Christy Altomare, Mary-Louise Parker, and Amber Gray. Shocked at all five of them not getting nominations, though most particularly Glick and Gray.

I finally caught ANASTASIA over the weekend and while Altomare is good in it, I can't really say that I thought her performance was better or more deserving than the women who were nominated. The committee obviously didn't think much of the show as a whole. I personally thought it a bit Disney lite, but that's just me.I did think Mary Beth Piel was wonderful though and am very happy she showed up this morning.

Gideon Glick. I am livid for the Significant Other snubs.

Shows that have closed already are usually at a disadvantage come nomination morning. So I'm not really surprised at the SIGNIFICANT OTHER snubs. It wasn't really a show that appealed to the( mostly older) Tony nominating committee.

Richard Topol and Allison Janney got screwed.

There's also no way I'll be convinced Miss Saigon deserved that revival nod over Sunset Boulevard.

I'm so upset that Gideon Glick didn't get a nomination.  His performance was absolutely heartbreaking, and he represented a younger demographic.  He deserved a nomination, at least.

Yeah, here I was thinking Glick and Janney both had good shots in their respective categories. There goes that.

Oh, and I thought Nick Cordero had a chance for Featured Actor nomination.
