As we did LAST WEEK, again referring back to the Great-Big Summary Chart of the Major Awards of the 2000-2001 Season, we attempt to draw conclusions -- some rather pointless, some not. All conclusions are based on this year's awards and do not pretend to be predictions of future results. This news release contains forward looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including timely product development, as well as the other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's SEC reports, including the report on Form 10-K and most recent Form 10-Qs. Oh, and I know |<--this much->| about statistics.
Organizational Ranking by Generousity Level
- The New York Drama Critics Circle only reveals winners: 3 awards/3 nominees. Percentage of nominees receiving awards: 100%. Chances of a (revealed) nominee winning an award: 100%.
- The Outer Critics Circle: 22 awards/80 nominees. Percentage of nominees receiving awards: 27.5% (down from 27.7% last year). Chances of a single nominee winning an award: 1.3% (up from 1.2%).
- The Tony's: 21 awards/92 nominees. Percentage of nominees receiving awards: 22.9% (up from 22.6%). Chances of a single nominee winning an award: 1.1% (unchanged).
- The Drama Desk: 24 awards/137 nominees. Percentage of nominees receiving awards: 17.5% (way down from 26%). Chances of a single nominee winning an award: 0.7% (down from 0.8%).
- The Drama League: 5 awards/21 nominees. Percentage of nominees receiving awards: 23.8% (up from 14.3%). Chances of a single nominee winning an award: 4.8% (unchanged).
- Your chance of winning a FANY this year was nil; they disappeared.
So, not including the NY Drama Critics Circle for which we only get to hear about the winners, if you were nominted for a Drama League you were more likely to win than if you were nominated for an Outer Critics Circle, in which you were more likely to win than if nominated for a Tony, in which you were more likely to win than if nominated for a Drama Desk.
