2018 Olivier Awards Predictions

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you guys are having a great new year so far. For my first post of the new year, I figured I'd do a little awards prediction. Why not start with the awards ceremony that confuses the hell out of me- The Olivier Awards- aka the most confusing awards ceremony I've ever tried to wrap my brain around. Anyway, this is only a partial list because I'm not familiar with every single show that has been brought to the West End this past year. I'm just going to list the shows (that I'm familiar with) by title and then under the title will be the awards they will be nominated for.
