Tony Season Begins Tomorrow - Some Predictions

Well, I figured that I might as well join in on the prognosticating on who will be nominated for Tony Awards. This isn't a complete slate, but rather, a snapshot of whom I believe will be up for the top awards. As we barrel into the Tony Award season, remember you can always see a full selection of press about the 2007 Tony Awards at www.americantheaterweb.com/news/Tony2007.asp

Until next time,
