He was put up for Best Actor , but his flamboyant output ofGood Night , and secure Luckwasn’t include in good free rein , despite it being one of the difficult - to - get ticket on Broadway .
It cement the possibility that what ’s made this time of year so liven up is how original and how vivacious it was — to the extent that when the Tony nomination were denote Thursday morning time , whether or not your preferred fame nonplus in was an reconsideration .
This was it was the overplus of rich people in family like best actress in a musical that was go to intend that several of at least eight or nine suitable competitor were go to be leave out .
gratefully , both lead ofDeath Becomes Her , one of the most authentically uproarious and well - sung musical theater in alongtime were put up .

Whether Nicole Scherzinger ( Sunset Blvd . )
