Andrew Rannells for Mormon

Scottsboro for Best Musical and Score (I have not seen Book of Mormon)
Aaron Tveit for Actor in a Musical
Donna Murphy for Actress in a Musical
Nicole Parker for Supporting Actress in a Musical
John Cullum for Supporting Actor in a Musical
Brian Bedford for Actor in a Play
Nina Arianda for Actress in a Play
The young guy in High for Supporting Actor in a Play (I pay REALLY good attention)

Wonderland for Costumes
Sergio Trujillo (or whatever his name is) for the choreography of anything because that guy needs recognition. I honestly don't know if he choreographed anything this season, but I feel bad, which obviously is no merit for a win, but whatever.

Julie Taymor for Lifetime Achievement

As long as Sutton Foster wins her second Tony for Anything Goes, I'm happy!! She's who I'm gonna be rooting for!

Also, I'd LOVE to see Anything Goes win Best Revival!

K&E winning for score is my only real desire this Tony season. Alas, the more I wish, the less I think they'll even be nominated.

Sutton Foster and Laura Benanti!

I still have to see Sister Act, Blue Leaves, Jerusalem, and Anything Goes. This most affects Actress in a musical, I think.

The Book of Mormon for Best Musical
John Kander and Fred Ebb (Scottsboro) for Best Score
Lopes, Stone, and Parker (Mormon) for Book of a Musical
Parker and Nicholaw for (Mormon) Director of a Musical
Susan Stroman (Scottsboro) for Choreography
Joshua Henry (Scottsboro) for Actor in a Musical
Donna Murphy (People in the Picture) for Actress in a Musical
Rory O'Malley (Mormon) for Featured Actor in a Musical
Nikki James (Mormon) for Featured Actress in a Musical
Anything Goes for Revival of a Musical (haven't seen it, but I have to hope I like this more than How to Succeed)


Good People for Best Play
The Merchant of Venice for Best Revival of a Play
Bobby Cannavale (Mother****er) for Actor in a Play
Frances McDormand for Actress in a Play (or Nina Arianda? or Lily Rabe? SUCH a good category!)
Hrach Titzian (Bengal Tiger) for Featured Actor in a Play
Elisabeth Rodrigues (Mother****er) for Featured Actress in a Play
Daniel Sullivan (Good People OR Merchant) for Director of a Play

Patina Miller better freaking win Best Actress in a Musical.

Sutton!

Patina Miller for Sister Act and Benjamin Walker for Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.

After seeing Sister Act last night, I will be furious if Patina doesn't win. She has more charisma and sex appeal in her pinky than Sutton has in her entire body.

This is a silly question.
I want ME to win a tony.
First I have to get cast and open in a Broadway Show.

[dreaming]

Posted: 4/14/11 at 1:10pm

Best Leading Actress in a Musical: Donna Murphy
Best Leading Actor in a Musical: Tony Sheldon
Best Featured Actor in a Musical: Norbert Leo Butz if he's petitioned there, or Rory O'Malley (who probably gave my favorite performance in Book of Mormon)
Best Featured Actress in a Musical: Nikki M. James
Best Actress in a Play: Frances McDormand
I don't have much input for actor in a play right now-going to see a few things (Wish Brian Bedford had a shot-he really should be in featured actor, where he'd probably win.)
Director of a Play: Brian Bedford-his adaptation of Earnest was really quite crisp and well-done. That's a tough show to do effectively.
Best Featured Actress in a Play: Estelle Parsons-steals every scene she's in
The other categories I really don't know enough about to have any strong opinions or I'll be seeing more shows in them very soon.

Jordan - this entire thread is about individual desire, which doesn't have to be justified - or indeed even have justification.

Other people have wants, just like you.

I would love to see Norbert Leo Butz win.

Right now, the only award I am 100,000% pulling for is Nina Arianda for Best Leading Actress in a Play.

Best Actor Musical: Aaron Tveit or Benjamin Walker

Are Gad & Rannells being considered for Leading Actor in a Musical?

And Rory O'Malley & Nikki James in the featured categories?

[Broadway61004]

I'll go with the tech categories here. I want to see the brilliant set design for "Jerusalem" trump "War Horse", even though I have a feeling "War Horse" will sweep through the four categories. And on a musical front, I hope they reward "Mormon" for at least sets and lighting over "Wonderland", even though "Wonderland" may be the more obvious choice.
