Well I am very much a man and am still thinking about it a week later. I found the random confusion of the storytelling, book and score actually to be a big part of its charm. As Beth/Liz fights the good fight of one of her choices against the other, so the left and right sides of the brains in the audience fight the same fight. I think Idina and LaChanze have Tony recognition ahead, perhaps 2d Tonys for each. Supporting actress looks to be a very weak category this year with no strong obvious nominee from ROCKY or BRIDGES, and BULLETS-- a mess. Adriane Lenox and the Broadway debuts of GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE may be her only real competition.
