Neil Patrick Harris visits the 'Late Show with David Letterman' in NYC
But in an heartbreaking surprise for many Neil Patrick Harris fans, the theater star isn't hosting the show and wasn't even nominated for an award this year. However, NPH is still expected to appear at the show, so all hope isn't lost!
Considered the night's biggest award, several critics have named best musical's top contenders as Fun Home and An American in Paris -- with both of the shows also snagging the top amount of overall nominations this year with 12 noms each.
Something Rotten and The King and I were also major nom winners this year, with Rotten grabbing 10 and King getting 9.
The featured actor in a play category isn't expected to be as predictable this year, though, with all the award's nominees considered strong competitors for the honor. The six nominees are Richard McCabe for The Audience, Alessandro Nivola for The Elephant Man, Matthew Beard for Skylight, K. Todd Freeman for Airline Highway, Micah Stock for It's Only a Play and Nathaniel Parker for Wolf Hall: Parts One & Two.
