''More recently (and bizarrely, IMHO), in 2013 the Tony Committee nominated Kristine Nielsen as Leading Actress for VANYA SONIA ND MASHA AND SPIKE, although only Sigourney Weaver and David Hyde Pierce were above the title. It is likely that if the Committee had left Ms Nielsen in the Featured Actress category, when would have won the Tony that year.''

That wrongheaded ruling robbed Nielsen of her Tony. The Outer Critics Circle, however, (correctly) awarded her as Featured Actress in ''Vanya.''
