There are millions of threads on this, but...

Grey Gardens is my pick. It's quite simply a masterpiece.

I want Spring Awakening and I think it will win.

Though, I wouldn't be unhappy if Poppins won eiather.

Haven't seen Curtains yet but want to.

Also, I don't think Grey Gardens is that good. Felt that the only way grief could direct the show is if he kept EVERYTHING down stage center. I just don't gett what all the fuss is about with this show.
