      The Tony Awards are here! You guys remember how balls-out crazy I got for the Oscars<\/a>? The Tonys are like 100 times more important to me. And to the world. Because THEATRE! Music! Dancing! Hugh Jackman and\/or Neil Patrick Harris without fail every year! & this year, both of them (Jackman hosting, NPH 100% winning)! But the Tonys are not all kick lines and high Es and people who say ‘the-ah-tuh’. No, there’s shit going down.<\/div>\n
<\/hr>\n
\n

<\/div>\n

      So here’s the 411 on Mr. Tonys. We all know it’s called show business for a reason, but recently the actual reach of poisonous business interests has been made clear to me. Due to the Tony voting body comprising many road producers (read: for those tour companies that come to your little podunk town), NYC producers, and other kinds of people who are like the oil barons of the theatre, the Tonys are really a way for people who want to make more money to ensure that they have an easier time at it. Meaning, often the shows that win awards are the shows that are the most bankable for the masses, because having “Tony-award winning” in front of a show’s title will draw more crowds. This means that maybe the best, most deserving shows (*cough* Bridges of Madison County *cough*) of the season will be ignored in favor of shows like “Aladdin” and “Beautiful” that will likely make the most money. It’s not surprising that the Tonys are like ALL other awards, in that the best isn’t necessarily what wins, but it’s sad nonetheless. 
      Regardless, I hold out hope that, even if the nominations never get it really right, the awards will at least produce some justice. We can all rant that awards mean nothing (because they really don’t), but everyone still wants to win! So below are my thoughts on the main categories, what I think will go down, what I hope will occur, and what I can’t understand. Tune in to CBS on Sunday, June 8 at 8pm to see how I do. And more importantly, how Hugh Jackman doooo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

BEST MUSICAL<\/font><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n
    \n
  • “After Midnight”<\/span><\/li>\n
  • “Aladdin”<\/span><\/li>\n
  • “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical”<\/span><\/li>\n
  • “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder”<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    <\/span>
    <\/span>Should have been nominated: “The Bridges of Madison County”, of course, the best new musical of the season.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n

\n
“Gentleman’s Guide<\/a>“, the funny and charming romp about an 8th-in-line descendant of an earl who knocks off every relative ahead of him, should definitely win out of this admittedly less than stellar group. “Beautiful” is the spoiler because of the aforementioned road producers: it would tour soooo successfully, and a Tony would help that (though it wouldn’t be necessary). “After Midnight”, while exceedingly entertaining (at least for an hour), was a straightforward jazz, dance, big band revue, not a musical with any sort of plot, so I don’t know who the show slept with to get nominated here.

\n
Although many are putting “All The Way”, about Lyndon B. Johnson, as the frontrunner, my vote would be for “Casa Valentina”, about which I have written but not posted the review. Harvey Fierstein wows again with a show about 1960s men who secretly loved to wear women’s clothing. At times heartwarming and at times heartbreaking, “Casa” was a wonderful, somehow old-fashioned-seeming night at the theatre.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Oh man, this pathetic category. Three nominees? Yeesh. “Les Mis” is done well, but who isn’t sick of this show right now?? Because I sure am. “Violet” is well done and people are flipping out over it, but it didn’t win me over. Read about why here. <\/a>The unstoppable winner is “Hedwig”, or the Neil Patrick Harris show. I haven’t seen it because tickets are like $500 but it’s a definite winner. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Now this is an interesting category!! All four of these productions were wonderful, and three were so stellar as to be mind-blowing. “Cripple”, with Daniel Radcliffe<\/a>, was incredibly well done and entertaining, thanks to a top-notch ensemble. “Menagerie” is widely thought to be the greatest production of the play ever, with Cherry Jones and Celia Keenan-Bolger giving benchmark performances. But even these stellar shows can’t top the all-male “Twelfth Night” straight from the Old Globe, which provided a perfect, hilarious, authentic theatrical experience. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hot damn. This is the category that is giving me agita. Jessie Mueller is giving a star-making turn as Carole King in “Beautiful”<\/a> and will be deserving when she wins the statue on Sunday. But my vote would have gone to O’Hara, the greatest current leading lady on Broadway who isn’t Audra McDonald, for her unbelievably perfect performance in “Bridges”<\/a>. She won’t win Sunday, but in a few years the theatre community will be like, “WTF how did Kelli not win for “Bridges” in 2014? F-ing f-ers, those voters!” Truth. <\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Another very crowded category, Best Actress in a Play is not without some controversy. Some people think “Lady Day” should have been categorized as a musical instead of a play, and so Audra would be in the list above. I believe the committee got this right, because the music in “Lady Day” is presented in a concert format; it doesn’t drive plot or story or anything.<\/a> But even if it were considered a musical and Audra was moved, she’d still win. In both categories. In every category. Although Cherry Jones was incredible as well, people want to see Audra make history with her sixth Tony, making her the first person to win in all four acting categories. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Speaking of crowded categories! My favorite of the season, Steven Pasquale (“Bridges”) was pushed out in favor of the surprise Pinkham, but everyone in here is giving wonderful performances. Ramin is a butter-voiced, ab-baring angel, Andy Karl as “Rocky” <\/a>was utterly charming and amazing, and Mays gives not just one but eight wonderful performances playing all<\/em> the doomed heirs in “Gentleman’s Guide”<\/a>. Mays would be a shoo-in in a different year, and still may surprise, but it would indeed be a surprise if anyone but NPH won, as he is giving the performance of his life as the post-op trans woman Hedwig. Someone buy me a ticket?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cranston, in his Broadway debut, is winning over crowds and Broadway snobs with his impressive turn as LBJ in a threeeee-hour play. A win for this fun-loving drug dealer would be deserved. But my vote would be for Barnett, a lovely as hell Viola in the lovely as hayell “Twelfth Night”. I also just love that Chris O’Dowd was nominated for a Tony. He is adorable.

Okay. So. This category feels like a total crapshoot. Lena Hall is the frontrunner, even though she wasn’t nominated for the Drama Desk, because of her star-making turn (so many of them this year!) in “Hedwig”. Emond is her close competitor, but I admit my tickets for “Cabaret” aren’t until July. I loved Anika in “Beautiful”, but it doesn’t seem like a Tony role. Worsham was fine, but how she got the nom over her castmate Lisa O’Hare I’ll never understand. Lenox was f-ing fantastic unbelievable astounding in “After Midnight” (again, review written but not posted, I’m behind)…but she is onstage for literally 4 minutes. It would be worse than Dame Dench’s win for “Shakespeare in Love”. So, I would say Hall. But whatever, man. <\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nicky C was the greatest part of “Bullets” (again…review coming) but his nomination is enough of a reward. Joshy H is the greatest part of “Violet<\/a>“, mostly because of his amazing solo “Let It Sing<\/a>“, and Jarrody S is my new favorite. But James..um.. I (doesn’t really work with I) is playing the freaking Genie. In “Aladdin”. So, yeah, he’s gonna win. They made up a special Oscar for Robin Williams because of that role! Can’t lose!

    Well that’s all folks. As you can tell, my favorite show of the season, “The Bridges of Madison County”, was unfairly snubbed in most categories. It had the most beautiful music in years, and some of the best performances, but it didn’t sell enough tickets, it closed too early, and will not be properly rewarded (because, as we learned earlier, giving a Tony to a closed show won’t make you any money!). “Gentleman’s Guide” is the next best possible winner, but it’s not as incredible and life-changing as people are hyping it to be. I think the hype is a product of the general consensus that this batch of nominees is a bit unexciting, so people are trying too hard to convince themselves and others that that’s not the case in order to feel better about it all. The real story going into Sunday, though, is that Hugh Jackman can do anything and I mean en neh thang; NPH can also do pretty much anything and will win his first and last Tony; and you should go buy the “Bridges” cast recording because hot damn.
