Posted: 4/2/13 at 8:29pmI just can't wait for the Tony noms to be announced so I was wondering what you guys think. I have a list in mind but I'm not sure...

Best musical
Matilda
Motown
Kinky Boots
Hands on a Hard Body
Best revival
Rogers and Hammerstein's Cinderella
The Mystery of Edwin Drood
Pippin
Annie
**Sadly, I don't predict Jekyll & Hyde getting a nomination just because it's Wildhorn and will be DOA... I LOVED it, but I'm not expecting a lot of (if any) nominations**
Best Actress
Matildas
Patina Miller
Laura Osnes
Stephanie J Block
Lilla Crawford or Deborah Cox or Carolee Carmello
That's all I can think of right now, and I'm sure I'm missing some.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 8:46pmI don't think Hands on a Hardbody will get nominated for best musical. I think Bring It On has a good shot at a nomination!

Best Actor in a Musical
Adesola Osakalumi and Duain Richmond-Fela
Anthony Warlow-Annie
Rob McClure-Chaplin
Bertie Carvel-Matilda
the last could go to anyone.
This is gonna be one of the toughest categories I think
#5Tony nominations predictions
Posted: 4/2/13 at 8:54pmNo one will get nominated for FELA! considering it was originally on Broadway a few years ago.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 9:01pmyou never know. it still was on this season.
#7Tony nominations predictions
Posted: 4/2/13 at 9:06pmYes but I think Hunter Foster, Stark Sands and Constantine Maroulis have better chances at getting nominated.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 9:07pmThere is a certain amount of years before a show like Fela has to wait before getting nominated. Look at Elf's situation.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 9:10pmI think Holland Taylor is a lock-- at least, she should be.
#10Tony nominations predictions
Posted: 4/2/13 at 9:20pmI did not think about Bring it On or A Christmas Story! I knew I was missing some. I am REALLY hoping Jekyll & Hyde gets some nominations - especially the three leads. I also think the costumes and lighting are deserving of a nod. I also hope William Ivey Long gets a nod for his costumes for Cinderella, and Anna Louizos gets recognized for her set designs for either DROOD of Cinderella!

FELA!
MIKE TYSON: UNDISPUTED TRUTH

FRANKI VALLI AND THE FOUR SEASONS ON BROADWAY
ELF
THE PERFORMERS
MANILOW ON BROADWAY
THE RASCALS: ONCE UPON A DREAM
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Kristine Nielsen is a lock for Featured Actress for Vanya

Tom Hanks- Lucky Guy
Tracy Letts- Virginia Woolf
Nathan Lane- The Nance
Alan Cumming- Macbeth
Someone from Orphans or David Hyde Pierce?

Leading Actor in a Play is the toughest of the acting categories to predict. At least 3 deserving actors will get the boot.
Seth Numrich and Michael Shannon are also noteworthy.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 10:18pmbecause of the Nance's awful book (as I heard) Nathan Lane may get the boot.

Posted: 4/2/13 at 10:57pmDo we think Tony Shalhoub has a chance or will he be forgotten? And what about Yvonne?
#23Tony nominations predictions
Posted: 4/3/13 at 10:08am
I'm not holding my breath, but I would love it if Douglas Hodge was nominated for CYRANO.
neonlightsxo, I'd say Tony Shaloub is one of the most likely Featured Actor contenders.
