London’s Olivier Awards divides plays into categories honoring “Best Play” and “Best Comedy.” Do you think the Tonys should do the same?

  A.  Yes, having more winners is good for Broadway.
  B.  No, we rarely get enough good plays to fill one category.
  C.  Yes, but only if the categories are Best Drama and Best Comedy.
  D.  No, because a lot of plays are both funny and dramatic.
  E.  I’ve got another opinion, so I’m leaving a comment.
