Two of the more anticipated star turns on Broadway this season – Steve Carell making his Broadway debut in the Lincoln Center Theater revival of Uncle Vanya and The Sopranos Michael Imperioli returning to the New York stage in Circle in the Square’s An Enemy of The People – got no love from Tony Award nominators today, and the West End hit Patriots, written by The Crown‘s Peter Morgan, barely registered on the roster with only one nom – for lead actor Michael Stuhlbarg.
Even more empty handed than Patriots was The Wiz, the cheery, if rote, revival of the beloved Black re-telling of The Wizard of Oz. Despite a star turn by Wayne Brady, it’s possible Tony nominators saw the Broadway revival for the uninspired road show it is.
Neither The Who’s Tommy, Monty Python’s Spamalot nor Gutenberg! The Musical landed more than one nomination, though each of those productions had their fervent supporters. Lempicka, a tough sell given the barely-there name recognition of the title character – 20th Century artist Tamara Lempicka – scored a respectable three nominations.
Far outperforming the expectations of naysayers – myself included – was The Outsiders, with 12 nominations putting Danya Taymor’s reinvention of the S.E. Hinton novel second in number only to Hell’s Kitchen and Stereophonic (both at 13). Water For Elephants – another book to movie to musical adaptation that divided critics – also performed well, with 7 nominations.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic It would be hard to imagine a more actually polarizing set — as in, splitting real fans into roughly even, truly diametrically opposed camps — than the headlining show Eric Church delivered to round out the first night of Stagecoach in California. The 70,000 festival attendees will definitely not lack for anything to talk, or argue, about for the rest of the weekend, and the debate will also continue among the many more fans who watched the livestream on Prime Video and Amazon’s Twitch channel.

It’s been a long time coming.
Trish Deitch Director Lila Neugebauer sets Lincoln Center Theater’s starry, breathtaking new Broadway production of Anton Chekhov’s “Uncle Vanya” in current-day America rather than Russia around 1898, the year the play was written.
