Drama Desk Award Nominations

Well here we go again. As I mentioned earlier in the week the award season is in full swing. Three days ago the Outer Critic's Award nominations were announced. Today it is the Drama Desk nominations with the Tony nominations set to be announced on Tuesday morning. Leading the pack this year with 12 nominations is A Gentleman's Guide To Love and Murder which interesting enough got the most Outer Critic's Circle nominations as well. I'm sensing a trend here people. Now on to the nominations. Enjoy!
