BECAUSE MIKE NICHOLS NEEDS MORE HARDWARE FOR HIS MANTLE:  We won't be liveblogging tonight's Tony Awards, but we will, as always, give you a thread to discuss.  It's actually an unusually competitive year--even though it's all-but-certain Nichols will take home a few awards for his uber-faithful Death of A Salesman revival, and quite likely that Audra McDonald will take home her fifth Tony, most of the other races are at least somewhat competitive.  Unlike recent years, there's no clear favorite going in--no Book of Mormon sucking all the commercial and critical air out of the room, so anything can happen.
