And the Nominees Are ...

The 2014 Tony nominations have been announced.  There were several interesting inclusions and, as to be expected in such a crowded year, several snubs that were deserving of nomination.  All in all, I did relatively well with my predictions, though my major error was being too optimistic about the chances of The Winslow Boy and Bridges of Madison County.  Anyhow .. without further ado, the nominees are:
