![]() ![]() Lovett in Sweeney Todd.ĭiamond’s Parade costar, Ben Platt, is a strong candidate in best actor in a musical, though perhaps he’s still too fresh off his Dear Evan Hansen win to beat Josh Groban for his saturnine murderer in Sweeney Todd. Will Victoria Clark, so poignant as a teenager living with an advanced-aging disorder in Kimberly Akimbo, be able to best Micaela Diamond, who is the beating heart of the lauded revival of Parade? Those two have to contend with a certified pop star- Sara Bareilles ( Into the Woods)-and Annaleigh Ashford, who has earned raves for her high-comedy take on Mrs. She, after all, is a movie star, and the Theatre Wing does like to give movie stars Tonys when it can. ![]() But Chastain, who may be on a winning streak that began with her 2022 Oscar and could possibly continue at the Emmys this fall (for George & Tammy), will provide formidable competition. Comer, already an Olivier Award winner for her astonishing hour-and-40-minute solo performance, will be hard to beat in that category. ![]()
