Tony 2011 Nominations Announced

Most of the acting nominees this year are theatre veterans rather than film transplants.

There are total 14 nominations, including nods for Best Musical, Direction, and Best Leading Actor, as well as Featured Actor and Actress.
" Ellen Barkin, currently making her Broadway debut in "A Normal Heart," received a nomination as well.

Daniel Radcliffe, who took months of voice and dance lessons to prepare for "How to Succeed," previously starred in a 2008 Broadway revival of Peter Shaffer's dark psychological drama, "Equus." The nominating committee left him out that year, as well.


A host for the night of Tony Awards show has not been named.
