I had a quick look and I don’t think anyone’s started this yet (or that anyone’s interested) but does anyone have any predictions for the upcoming Olivier Awards? I’m predicting Company to get nominated a lot.

I already started a thread about the Olivier Awards back in the fall. You’re welcome to post your predictions there. https://www.goldderby.com/forum/theater/2019-olivier-awards-official-thread/

I think Come From Away will probably have a better shot than Waitress. While we don’t know how either show will be received in London yet, Come From Away got a much stronger response here in the United States. While Waitress did get some good reviews, it also has its share of detractors.

I saw Come From Away in London recently. I wonder if there’s a chance Jenna Boyd and Jonathan Andrew Hume could nab nominations in the supporting categories? Maybe Rachel Tucker will go lead.
