Tony Award Predictions: Comparing

I was not that far off for most of them. I predicted 12 out of 25 categories correctly. That's not to to shabby if I say so myself. The person/show that I predicted to win are in red. The person/show that actually won is in bold with an asterisk next to the title. I am so happy for Renée she deserved that Tony. I was surprised that Leslie won. I was sure that he and Lin would split the vote which would cause a third party to win.
