Best musical Hell's Kitchen
This jukebox musical is semi-autobiographical and follows the story of Key's upbringing in the artists' paradise of Manhattan Plaza in Hell's Kitchen.

Best Actor in a Musical Jonathan Groff
Playing a Broadway composer turned film producer in Merrily We Roll Along, Groff, now a three-time Tony nominee, is thefirst choice for best actor in a musical. His co-stars Radcliffe and Mendez are also strong contenders in their supporting actor categories.

In Days of Wine and Roses, OHara gives a moving performance as Kirsten, a young woman whose social drinking eventually turns into something much more serious. The play follows her marriage to Joe and how their dependence on each other throws their lives into turmoil.
Best Actor in a Play Leslie Odom Jr.
Purlie Victorious, Ossie Davis's 1961 comedy play about a black preacher in the 1950s South, was neglected for many years. But Odom's portrayal, alongside co-star Kara Young, brought new life to the piece and brought it to the forefront of this year's ceremony.
Best Actress in a Play Sarah Paulson
Atcenter of the appropriate crowd favorite,Paulson plays one of three siblings unpacking the literal and metaphorical baggage of their deceased father. The 49-year-old actress is probably best known for Ryan Murphy's anthology series American Horror Story and American Crime Story, but she's largely carrying this ensemble cast.
