Today the Tony Awards announced their nominees for this year, and Fun Home tied for the most nominations. The musical received 12 total. An American in Paris also received 12. The musical is based on the graphic novel by Alison Bechdel.

The full list of the nominations are for Best Musical, Best Score, Best Book, Best Director, Best Actor in a Musical (Michael Cerveris), Best Actress in a Musical (Beth Malone), three in the Best Featured Actress category ( Judy Kuhn, Sydney Lucas and Emily Skeggs,), Best Scenic Design, Best Lighting Design, and Best Orchestration.

The musical has been in development since 2009 and opened off-Broadway in 2013. It has won numerous awards since it began. It opened on Broadway with previews in March 27, 2015 and the official opening on April 19, 2015. By my count it has been nominated for numerous awards 33 times so far (not including the Tony Awards) and has won 8 times, five of which were versions of “Best Musical.”

The Tony Awards celebrate the best of Broadway, and will air June 7 on CBS.
