Bonus Post: The Newest Theater Nominations

Yeah, I know.  I usually only post on Wednesdays and Saturdays.  But awards season is upon us. The Outer Critics Circle announced its nominations last Monday and a few days later, the New York Drama Critics Circle named its top shows. Just this week, the Lucille Lortels were handed out and both the Drama Desk and Tonys named the candidates for their awards (click here for Playbill's handy roundup of all the awards news thus far). 

Now it’s the turn of the Independent Theater Bloggers Association, the group of theater watchers who regularly express themselves online.  This morning, the ITBA, of which I’m proud to be a member, posted its nominations for the best of the season that just ended. Here are our choices:
