Tonys 2008: 'A Catered Affair' missed being nominated for best musical by one vote

May 16, 2008 | 10:40 am

Turns out that "A Catered Affair" was edged out of the Tony Awards top race by only one vote.

As Michael Riedel of the New York Post reports, the tuner - written by and starring four-time Tony winner Harvey Fierstein - "tied 'Cry-Baby' on the first ballot. To break the tie, the nominators voted again –- and 'Cry-Baby' slipped in." Riedel goes on to report that there were 10 other ties that day.
