We’ve spent the last six weeks tracking the 2018 Tony Awards race. Here are our predictions in each category.
My predictions are based on our data analysis, combined with my own feelings and hunches of the races.
The picture represents my prediction in the category. Underneath I shared the picks from the rest of the OHenry team, Krista Ray and Chris Schembra. We’ve got a little pool going in the office again this year. Last year Chris managed to beat me with his predictions, winning the whole damn thing (in a tie for first with Adam Feldman of TimeOut). Let’s see who fairs best this year. There’s only one way to find out – tune into the Tony Awards Broadcast on Sunday night!
