The time has come for me to post my official Tony predictions for tomorrow's show. I have structured my predictions this year the same way I do every year. For each category, I have listed who I think WILL win and who SHOULD win. Sometimes these are the same thing and sometimes they are not. I have also included for each category a Dark Horse. This represents the nominated person or show in each category that has the best chance at staging an upset in that category. In some cases (like Best Actor in a Play this year) there are two strong candidates in that category and, since I can only pick one to win, I used my best judgment as to which one that would be, but I didn't feel right not putting down that the other had a strong chance at the prize. In other categories, one nominee seems to stand out as the clear winner, but I always like to hedge my bets and name an alternate.
So, without further ado, here are my predictions for the 2012 Tony Award Winners.
