Maybe Happy Ending,” a rom-com musical about androids that crackles with humanity, had a definite happy ending at Sunday’s Tony Awards. It won best new musical.
Cue the fireflies. After netting ten Tony nominations, “Maybe Happy Ending” walked away from this year’s awards ceremony with six trophies including Best Musical and Best Leading Actor in a Musical for Darren Criss.
The biggest? Best Actress in a Musical ladies Nicole Scherzinger in “Sunset Blvd.” vs. Audra McDonald in “Gypsy,” and the biggest diva showdown in recent memory ended up in victory for the former Pussycat Doll frontwoman, denying McDonald a seventh Tony for acting, which would have increased her own existing record.
