It is quite ridiculous to think Hamilton wont win any acting awards, especially when it has a good chance in 3 of the 4 categories.

I believe the Color Purple should win but She Loves Me will win. I saw the original Color Purple and would describe it as bulky and clunky. The production distracted from the material. This new production is so simplistic and seamless that it reinvigorated the material. In my opinion, that is how a revival should be judged. For those who have seen other productions of the She Loves Me, is this revival drastically different or a standard interpretation of the material?

To be fair, the lighting design in Hamilton is brilliant. So brilliant that I'd say it's one of the best 5 things about the show. I have no qualms whatsoever about it winning that award. It definitely doesn't deserve all the technical awards though.

BroadwayConcierge said: "Randomlink1 said: "I'm betting that Hamilton wins no more than 5 awards

I don't see it winning in the acting categories, but in the quality of the show libretto and music wise it will most likely win."

This statement would only make sense if you said the opposite about acting. It's pretty much a lock for both Featured performance categories and Lead Actor looks highly in its favor. It can and absolutely will win more than five awards.



"

I'm just saying that there were other performances other than Hamilton this year. Keep in mind there was 2014 where two people from Gentlemen's Guide were nominated, who were by the way stunning in their performances, and they still lost to Neil Patrick Harris. Then there was last year where three actresses from Fun Home were noinated, again all deserving of the award, but lost. The Tony nominations this year weren't "We need to nominate other shows to throw off that Hamilton is going to win in each category." There are diverse tastes on Broadway, and any one of the people who were nominated could win on Tony night.

aaaaaa15 said: "But just as people should be realistic that Hamilton probably wont win everything, you should be realistic in realizing it's probably going to win more than 5, including at least one acting award.

And NPH was always the favorite.



"

No, I'm not saying he wasn't deserving of the win. I'm just saying that there are always other people in the nominations, and that to even get a Tony nomination means that you're stunning in performance.

And I know that Hamilton is most likely going to win more than 5 awards, but my prediction is that it wins 5.

Didn't read all of the thread, but I totally agree, King Charles III was the most superbly written play to come around in a long time. It deserves to win over The Humans.

Here are some categories categories Hamilton is nominated that Tony voters could use to spread the wealth to other shows.

Lead Actor in a Musical: Tony voters could use this award to acknowledge Fiddler on the Roof or even School of Rock.
Lead Actress in a Musical: It would be one of the biggest shockers in history if Phillipa Soo ends up winning.
Featured Actor in a Musical: The three Hamilton guys could split the vote and the award could go to Brandon Victor Dixon or Christopher Fitzgerald.
Featured Actress in a Musical: Jane Krakowski could probably earn her fair share of support.
Best Choreography: Savion Glover could give Andy Blankenbuehler a run for his money.
