I know, I know the nominations came out like 3 days ago but I needed time to actually take it in.
The VERDICT? SLOW YEAR
We are going to have some "Best Choreo goes to Annie(1977)" this year.
They are kinda a mess. Even though I love Xanadu and I actually really liked Cry Baby they aren't going to be the ones that are going to win. Passing Strange or In The Heights are going to win unless they continue with the "Which Musical will profit more at my theatre on a national tour" i.e.
Fosse winning over Parade (1999)
Spamalot winning over Light In The Piazza(2005)
Jersey Boys winning over The Drowsy Chaperone(2006)
I think Xanadu should just win just because it should never win. . . but actually has a chance!
The Revivals on the other hand are FIERCE! I think South Pacific gets it because Gypsy was just here and Gypsy will win Best Actress and Best Director.
I don't know but what happened to A Catered Affair, why wasn't this show at least nominated for Best Musical? it is very confusing.
In case you missed them or haven't really given them a good look here is the link to the list on playbill.com TONY Awards 2008
its just . . . eeh.
