Best Actor in a Musical
Seth Golay
After competently playing clean-cut lads in vanilla shows such as Forever Plaid, in December Seth Golay fearlessly bit into something meatier with the Unicorn's Bat Boy and proved he could carry a show -- twice, if you count the revival in June. Playing a feral creature -- half-human and half-bat -- is tough to pull off; it's extremely physical and, to some viewers, grotesque. But Golay had the chops for the demanding score, and he found the boy's humanity, making us see past his pointy fangs and ears.
