The Tony Awards Administration Committee released its final round of rulings April 29 before next week's nominations.

Among the most-watched decisions, Shuffle Along Or the Making of the Musical Sensation of 1921 and all that Followed will be considered a new musical, not a revival as its producer reportedly had requested.

Instead of competing with The Color Purple, Fiddler on the Roof, Spring Awakening and She Loves Me for Best Revival of a Musical, it will now compete with Hamilton, Waitress, School of Rock, American Psycho, Tuck Everlasting, Bright Star, Disaster!, Amazing Grace and On Your Feet! for Best Musical.

For its fourth and final meeting of the season, the Administration Committee discussed the eligibility of elements of Bright Star, Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, The Father, American Psycho, Waitress, Fully Committed, Tuck Everlasting, Long Day’s Journey Into Night and Shuffle Along.
