Nominations, maybe. I don't know if he's ever going to be seen as Tony-winning material, though. I'd love it.
If Nathan Lane hadn't been in the running for the '96 season, he'd have had a shot.
As for the interest in Billy Flynn, I think that would be... interesting, to say the least. I mean, he surprised us all in Cabaret, and Billy's got to be far less challenging, anyway. It would be a different spin, but he's certainly got the sexy charm to put into it - always works in his favor. He'll just have to... forgo the tap-dancing, heh.
Still - he's got to *originate* a good role and kick ass doing it to get another Tony nod. He's young; it could happen, but I won't go so far as to say it's overdue, as much as I love him.
A work of art is an invitation to love.
