Below are our picks for all the Tony categories in which we saw more than half of the nominees. We made no picks in the following categories: Outstanding Lighting Design (Play), Outstanding Costume Design (Play), Outstanding Featured Actress (Play), Outstanding Leading Actor (Play), and Best Revival (Play). Any nominee we didn't see is marked with an "D". We have given our choices in the style Ben Brantley and Charles Isherwood in The New York Times: "what WILL win," "what SHOULD win," and, in many cases, a "should have been NOMINATED."
Here goes!
UPDATE:
- Jeff: Guessed 11 winners of the 21 categories we predicted, another 6 "should wins" did win, and 4 were completely wrong.
- Mike: Guessed 12 winners of the 21 categories we predicted, another 3 "should wins" did win, and 6 were completely wrong.
- The winners are listed below.
