Don't Miss the 2011 Tony Awards! Tuesday, June 07, 2011

The 2011 Tony Awards are right around the corner!  Check out this year's nominees for  BEST MUSICAL:

The Book of Mormon - from Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of “South Park,” comes a new Broadway musical that follows a pair of mismatched Mormon boys sent on a mission to a place that's about as far from Salt Lake City as you can get!

Catch Me If You Can - a high-flying new musical comedy based on the hit DreamWorks film and the incredible true story of Frank W. Abagnale, Jr., a teenager who runs away from home in search of the glamorous life with nothing more than a boyish charm, a big imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks.

The Scottsboro Boys - this daring and wildly entertaining musical explores a fascinating chapter in American history with arresting originality.  The show is based on the notorious “Scottsboro” case in the 1930s, in which 9 African-American men were unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

Sister Act - based on the smash-hit film, “Sister Act” features an original score by 8-time Oscar and 10-time Grammy Award winner Alan Menken.  Disco diva Deloris Van Cartier has dreams of hitting the big time, but when she walks in on a “hit” of a different kind, the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look - a convent!

The nominees for BEST REVIVAL OF A MUSICAL are Anything Goes (starring Sutton Foster) and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (starring Daniel Radcliffe).
