Think Wolfe may get the nomination for DROOD over Mueller. Folks on this thread don't have much faith for the men of DROOD, but don't be shocked...

Caroline o Connor in adf? What is adf?

I saw Caroline o Connor as mamma rose in the Paul kerryson production of gypsy at curve in uk last year, she was awesome as always

Playbilly- I agree that Wolfe might get nominated over Mueller. As great as Jessie was, Betsy stole the show the night I saw it.

Some of these predictions seem to neglect the decisions made by the committee already about certain category designations already.

Yvonne Strahovski was already designated as featured.

Will Chase was already ruled as featured.

Kristine Neilsen is billed below the title in Vanya Masha.

Jessica Hecht was ruled as featured for Harvey - no determination yet on Assembled Parties for her.

I hope the Tony voters don't forget Enemy of the People as the folks on this site have.

Could Bette Midler get a nomination, or just get a special award?

I find it interesting that nobody has mentioned Oscar Nominee and Three Time Emmy winner Cicely Tyson on here. She is one of the most respected actresses of her generation and she is 80 years old. She could probably walk across the stage and get a nomination.

I would LOVE to see Wicks get a nomination! I doubt it will happen only because it's such a tough category and the Wildhorn stigma will affect her chances.

I sort of see Analeigh Ashford as a lock for Featured Actress after all of her wonderful reviews.

[WiCkEDrOcKS]

Posted: 4/7/13 at 12:31am

Yeah, I would imagine Annaleigh is a lock for a nomination.

[ILOHTFAHA (Aida Man)]

Posted: 4/7/13 at 12:57am

Yeah Annaleigh Ashford is so a LOCK with the great reveiws on her side. BUT I think Teal Wicks will get nominated because her performance as Emma was really one of the highlights for me because she gave the character depth instead of portraying her as a flimsy ingenue

I think they are going to give Carolee Carmello a nom just for putting up with scandalous... even if that means knocking SJB out of the Nominations.

I wouldn't count her out just yet.

I'm sorry but jekyll&hyde will not get that many nominations.

@Broadwaybabe
I would tend to agree with you especially since the Tony nominators are known to try and spread the wealth with the musical categories as long as the producers egos are not out of line (Addams family, Young Frankenstein). Kathy Lee Gifford was extremely humble when she brought Scandalous to Broadway, and she has always been a very large and outspoken supporter for the Broadway community. Although she has no chance at a nomination with there being 5 decent to great scores this season with Matilda, Bring It On!, Hands on a Hardbody, A Christmas Story, and Kinky Boots, Carollee Carmello is the shows best chance for a nomination. The only way I can see her getting a nomination though since Best Actress is going to be an extremely tough race is either one of 2 things happening. The less likely thing is that they rule the Matildas ineligible since they break the rule of 3, and the more likely event which is that the nominators feel that Drood is already getting its far share of nominations for a production that is already closed and give Carollee Carmello, Stephanie J. Block's nomination.

I really hope either Chaplin or Bring It On gets nominated over Hands on a Hard Body. The show was very disappointing! I was very bored. I loved Bring It On and Chaplin and I hope they get remembered.

Re: Chaplin, I really hope Rob McClure gets nominated.

[supersam1026]

Posted: 4/7/13 at 10:08pm

I think most competitive and unpredictable will be either Best Director of a Musical (Paulus vs. Warchus) and Best Actor in a play. Right now it's looking like Tracy Letts, Alan Cumming, and Tom Hanks are all locks for nominations and I think any one could win. I know there have been doubts about Hanks, but I really don't think they could resist the urge to nominate him simply so they can cut to him throughout the broadcast.

What about Alec Baldwin in Orphans? I'm sure he'll be nominated. And I think Annie will get less love than most people predict it will. I doubt Lilla will get nominated considering everyone now loves the Matilda girls.

[supersam1026]

Posted: 4/8/13 at 12:43am

Oh yeah, I'm sure Baldwin will snatch a nomination up too! There are SO many possibilities that I knew I would miss a couple. Nathan Lane, David Hyde Pierce (if he's considered lead, haven't seen the show yet), etc.

Posted: 4/8/13 at 4:48am

I'm hoping Ciaran Hinds is nominated for CAT.

[littlebro2]

Posted: 4/8/13 at 7:55pm

Hands is now mostly out of the picture. Bring It on should be thrilled

[Jersey Girl2]

Posted: 4/8/13 at 8:21pm

>>>WILDHORN IS BACK!
I agree!!
& yes, Rob McClure was excellent!

Thought it would be fun to consider probable set and costume design nominees.
My guesses:

SET, MUSICAL:
Matilda
Annie
Pippin
Kinky Boots (for want of a better option)

SET, PLAY:
The Nance
Golden Boy
The Testament of Mary
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

COSTUMES, MUSICAL
Cinderella
Matilda
The Mystery of Edwin Drood
Chaplin

COSTUMES, PLAY
The Nance
Golden Boy
The Heiress
The Big Knife

Is it me or does it seem to have been an impoverished season for design this year?
What am I missing?
