Logic would say no. If a remount isn't a revival, then it must be considered the original production; therefore it's simply a recasting, and recast actors in long-running shows are never eligible. But the Tony committee went against that logic once before when they decided the new casts of remounts of "White Christmas" were eligible.
It was a truly bizarre decision, in my opinion. Recast actors in a long-running show aren't eligible. But if the show takes a hiatus, then they are? Crazy.
We shall see what they decide with "Waitress." |
