Can someone post the entire list of plays and musicals eligible for this year's Tony Awards? I remember last year every single musical eligible was nominated at least once and there were just a few plays not nominated.

At the last Tony Rules Committee meeting, they ruled "The Story of My Life" ineligible.


For Your Grammy Consideration:
Kristin Chenoweth - in all eligible categories

There's no mention of that in the official press release from the Tony Awards website:

http://www.tonyawards.com/en_U...021238705627611.html

Certainly it would have been included in there if that had been the decision. It's my understanding that the only publication to report SOML as ineligible was Variety. It was not reported in any other publication's coverage of the meeting - including all major NY theater news sources.

Perhaps it was tabled until the last meeting, or perhaps it's eligible despite the early closing. Usually Playbill puts out a full list of eligible productions before the Tony nominations.

It's likely not to matter either way. The only possibility for the show is Malcolm Gets in the Lead Actor in a Musical category - a long shot.
