We'll be telling stories about 2020 for a long time. June 7, 2020 was meant to be the night of the 74th annual Tony Awards. The new musicals this season included:
Girl From the North Country - jukebox musical
Jagged Little Pill - jukebox musical
Moulin Rouge! - jukebox movie adaptation
The Lightning Thief - novel adaptation
Tina: The Tina Turner Musical - jukebox bio
There was only one original score in the bunch. Truth be told I wasn't excited by any of these shows. I was more interested in the gender swapped revival of Company and the large crop of new plays.
For a list of potential nominees, check out JKS Theatre Scene's sample ballot here.
EDIT: One more original musical was on the horizon: Six
