Just this morning, Something Rotten and Spotlight star Brian d'Arcy James along with this season's break-out and genuflecting sensation Jennifer Simard from Broadway's Disaster announced the The Outer Critics Circle nominees for the 2015-16 season from New York's legendary Algonquin Hotel (59 W 44th Street.) Outer Critics Circle nominations are the first major Broadway/Off-Broadway award nominees of the New York theater season. Of note, because they were eligible last year for their Off-Broadway incarnations, HAMILTON, BLACKBIRD and DISASTER! were only eligible for new elements.

Due to OCC's nomination deadline, the producers of the new Broadway musical SHUFFLE ALONG asked to be considered with next season's entries.

Leading the pack were AMERICAN PYSCHO and SHE LOVES ME with 8 nominations each, followed by BRIGHT STAR, and ON YOUR FEET! with 7 nominations, DEAR EVAN HANSEN (Off-Broadway) with 6 and ECLIPSED, LAZARUS, SPRING AWAKENING and LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT with 5.
