"no one expected her to win" Considering the fact that the applause was so much stronger when she was announced among the nominees, I would say it was pretty clear the audience expected it. :)

This was a really strong year. Idina didn't expect to win because Donna Murphy was winning all of the other awards that year for her turn in Wonderful Town. Tonya Pinkins was a spoiler and gave an incredible and emotionally-raw performance (from an underrated but brilliant show). Out of the Wicked women, it was actually Kristin Chenoweth who got all the best reviews from the critics who made sure to mention her excellent acting skills. Idina had the stronger songs though. Stephanie d'Abruzzo was a surprise nominee and she didn't expect to even be nominated although she was very deserving of the award too.

@meaganodell44798 жыл бұрын
I personally feel that Elphaba, is a lead role, whilst Glinda/s character is also a lead I feel it could be a secondary lead or supporting role. Since the story is after all about Elphaba. Just my opinion.

@lansadequipe82848 жыл бұрын
i don't agree - i saw Hamilton too, and to me, Burr was clearly the lead - so was Hamilton too, but it's a a tie. Burr isn't a featured actor in Hamilton. But, as far as i'm concerned, Eliza and Angelica are both featured actresses.
@jasonc.parker46447 жыл бұрын
The criteria for whether a person is considered for Featured or Lead is about billing, not role size. The rule is, if a person is billed above the title of a show, they are considered a lead. All others are considered featured. The producers of the show can petition the TONY nominating committee to have a peformer moved into the other category, but it's up to their discretion. It's not the best rule, and has caused some pretty strange results. Probably the most famous example is Tammy Grimes winning Featured Actress for "The Unsinkable Molly Brown"- where she played Molly Brown, who is obviously the led character.
@meaganodell44797 жыл бұрын
Jason C. Parker see and that is bizarre. If the actor or actress is playing main role and is nominated it should be for the lead not featured. So wierd. I had never heard of Leslie Odom jr or Daveed Diggs, but I sure knew who Lin Manuel Miranda and Renee Goldsberry were. I just think it was a travesty to put Leslie Odom Jr as the lead when he clearly was not and the title of the play/muscal was Hamilton, not Burr. 3/4 of the songs were about Hamilton not Burr, so I disagree it was about him. Yes he won in the end but it was a play of Hamilton and his life.

@bubi17162 жыл бұрын
I blame it on the commercials, the productivity of CBS, and the Tony committee putting together the show. They need sponsorship so they run commercials longer. CBS basically get to call the shots since they're the ones who air the show, and the committee are the ones who put them together. Seems like the opening of the Tonys are longer now. Remember 2012's huge number with NPH? It was literally 8 minutes long. Then the audience was applauding for a good 5 minutes after that. It makes the time get cut shorter and shorter which doesn't give enough time for the winners to give a speech.
