The Tony Awards nominations are here. It’s been a starry Broadway season, with a host of new plays and musicals as well as a bounty of screen actors.
Some of those buzzy names paid off: George Clooney was nominated for the play “Good Night, and Good Luck”; Sarah Snook for “The Picture of Dorian Gray”; and Cole Escola for “Oh, Mary!” Other productions had a different fate. Neither “Othello,” starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, nor “Job,” starring the “Succession” actors Sydney Lemmon and Peter Friedman, received a single nomination. And the celebrity-heavy “Glengarry Glen Ross” earned only one nod, for Bob Odenkirk for best featured actor in a play.
It was also a big season for splashy musicals as attendance rebounded on Broadway. In a three-way tie, “Buena Vista Social Club,” “Death Becomes Her” and “Maybe Happy Ending” earned the most nominations with 10 each. “Dead Outlaw,” “John Proctor Is the Villain,” “Sunset Boulevard” and “The Hills of California” followed — with seven each.
The nominees for this year’s awards, presented by the Broadway League and the American Theater Wing, were announced Thursday morning by the Tony winners Sarah Paulson and Wendell Pierce.
