Although we don’t have a date for the 74th Annual Tony Awards, we do have a full list of nominees! Surprises here included the exclusion of The Lightning Thief, which meant Best Score went entire to plays and Best Leading Actor in a musical is unopposed. For musical, Jagged Little Pill (15) and Moulin Rouge!(14) leads with most nominations, Slave Play (12) and The Inheritance (11) for plays — mostly as expected.

And here are the nominees:

Best Play
Grand Horizons by Bess Wohl
The Inheritance by Matthew López
Sea Wall/A Life by Simon Stephens & Nick Payne
Slave Play by Jeremy O. Harris
The Sound Inside by Adam Rapp

Best Musical
Jagged Little Pill
Moulin Rouge! The Musical
Tina — The Tina Turner Musical

Best Revival of a Play
Betrayal by Harold Pinter
Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune
by Terrence McNally
A Soldier’s Play
by Charles Fuller

Best Book of a Musical
Jagged Little Pill, Diablo Cody
Moulin Rouge! The Musical, John Logan
Tina — The Tina Turner Musical, Katori Hall, Frank Ketelaar and Kees Prins
