There will definitely still be future productions with "Bobby", but if Marianne Elliott is making a film version of it, that will almost certainly be "Bobbi". She's the one who brainstormed this whole concept and worked tirelessly wit

One that sort of combines both of these ideas (small role or category fraud) that has always confused me is Michael Cavanagh in Movin Out. On the one hand, you could say he's a member of the orchestra and not in the story at all and therefore truly the smallest "part" to be nominated. On the other hand, you could say he's literally singing solo from the moment the lights come up to the minute the lights go down, so how is that not leading? So you either have category fraud o

You've named 4 shows from the last 6 years that have manages to overcome not having big names. Good for you. How about The Kite Runner, Life of Pi, Ain't No Mo, Ohio State Murders, The Shark is Broken, Pass Over, Chicken and Biscuits, Dana H, The Minutes, For Colored Girls..., The Littl

2) Gypsy was not ready by the start of previews and was heavily criticized in all the tabloids as such, creating lots and lots of negative publicity around the production. 

3) Bernadette missed a lot of performances. 

The only change with Patti presumably would have been the missing lots of performances. The other two th

Danya got her start working on micro-productions at The Flea and The Tank a dozen years ago, and gradually worked her way up through the nonprofits and, eventually, to Broadway.
