The Tonys still affect ticket sales a great deal, making them, in their own strange way, perhaps the most directly influential of all entertainment awards. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s high-profile Bad Cinderella had narrow chances, bad as its reviews have been, and its zero nominations will make it hard for the show to stay open.
There weren’t many egregious snubs this morning, though Life of Pi probably hoped for some acting nominations. Lovett in Sweeney Todd.ĭiamond’s Parade costar, Ben Platt, is a strong candidate in best actor in a musical, though perhaps he’s still too fresh off his Dear Evan Hansen win to beat Josh Groban for his saturnine murderer in Sweeney Todd. Will Victoria Clark, so poignant as a teenager living with an advanced-aging disorder in Kimberly Akimbo, be able to best Micaela Diamond, who is the beating heart of the lauded revival of Parade? Those two have to contend with a certified pop star- Sara Bareilles ( Into the Woods)-and Annaleigh Ashford, who has earned raves for her high-comedy take on Mrs. She, after all, is a movie star, and the Theatre Wing does like to give movie stars Tonys when it can. But Chastain, who may be on a winning streak that began with her 2022 Oscar and could possibly continue at the Emmys this fall (for George & Tammy), will provide formidable competition. Comer, already an Olivier Award winner for her astonishing hour-and-40-minute solo performance, will be hard to beat in that category.
