Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812Ĭome From Away (Irene Sankoff and David Hein) I haven’t seen two of the major players on the Best Play side yet, “Sweat” and “Doll’s House, Part two” but I’ll let you know what I think of their chances as soon as I do, within the next two weeks. It was a busy year but a tough year.One of Broadway’s biggest ever. The Tony nominating committee only had four slots per category and sometimes less. The incredible set and costumes by David Korins and Catherine Zuber, respectively, but nothing else. Patti Lu Pone & Christine Ebersole were nominated for Best Actress in a Musical, as expected. One for Mary Beth Piel who is the very aristocratic grandmother and Linda Cho for Best Costumes.Īlso not turning up much was “War Paint”. Believe it or not the revival of “Sunset Blvd.” and “Anatasia” got two nominations. “Amelie”, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”. Well, now, he’s got a much-prized Tony Nomination in a very competitive year in a very competitive category. Josh Groban, of course, got nominated for Best Lead Actor in a Musical for his Pierre. I’m thrilled to announce that my fave of faves “Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812” just landed 12, a solid dozen of the All-Important Tony Nominations this morning! It even beat “Hello Dolly” which came in second with 10. TONY Noms Out!”Natasha, Pierre…” Got A Dozen! Topping Even “Hello Dolly”!
