"Maybe Happy Ending," "Death Becomes Her" and "Buena Vista Social Club" lead the nominations with 10 nods a piece, including best musical. The strange-but-true "Dead Outlaw" and World War II spy satire "Operation Mincemeat" rounded out the best musical category. Cole Escola's madcap "Oh, Mary!" was a major force with five nods, including best play, best actor (Escola) and best featured actor (Conrad Ricamora). The unlikely hit comedy, which tells a deranged alternative history of Mary Todd Lincoln, has attracted high-profile celebrity audience members including Dua Lipa, Jennifer Lopez, Meryl Streep, and Steven Spielberg.
