My Tony Awards

I love the Tony Awards. At this time of year, all the new shows are starting up, and it's hard not to wonder which one will take the big prize. I couldn't resist choosing my own winners!

This isn't so much a prediction, it's just who I would give the award to. I couldn't see every show, so I've just picked from the eleven I saw (even if they're not from this year).
