Tony Nominations Snubs and Surprises: ‘The Wiz’ Shut Out, Steve Carell and Michael Imperioli Overlooked, as ‘Stereophonic’ Becomes Most-Nominated Play in History


The biggest snubs and surprises from the nominations for the 2024 Tony Awards, including 'The Wiz,' Steve Carell and 'Stereophonic.'

That could prove a hurdle for the producers of the Tony telecast, who’ll surely want to spotlight such a prominent and well-liked title, but could find themselves limited by the ceremony’s time constraints and the need to include performances from all the nominated shows. Michael Imperioli, the “Sopranos” alum who had an attention-getting turn in the most recent season of “White Lotus,” was widely expected to get a nod for his well-received performance in “An Enemy of the People” opposite “Succession” star Jeremy Strong (who did earn a nom for lead play actor). “Tommy,” meanwhile, arrived in New York following a buzzy run in Chicago, and it did take a nod for musical revival alongside “Gutenberg!” but didn’t land a nom for its buzzed-about lead actor, Ali Louis Bourzgui.
