Jessie continues her streak of gaining a Tony a nomination every other year (2012, 2014, 2016, 2018)

Jessie Mueller is the first actress to ever get a Tony Nomination for portraying Julie Jordan.

Her 4th Tony nod, with a role that has never previously led to a nomination, comes in a season that was far from sparse in groundbreaking leading female performances.

Therefore Jessie re-establishes herself as one of the most innovative, unique visionaries and performers that Broadway has ever seen. She was able to find something in Julie that was brand new and worthy of critical acclaim, despite Carousel having had a total of 8 productions on Broadway and The West End. Furthermore, she’s brought Julie into a 21st Century setting and we can see societies growth towards the telling of different women’s stories and experiences.

Jessie, currently, is the only actress to be Tony nominated for every eligible lead role. (I believe, solidifying this fact is tricky so feel free to correct me, but I’m almost definite she is - excluding people who have only had one eligible role.)

Holding a total of 4 nominations for her work - leading and supporting - in a musical since 2010, Jessie has now overtaken Kelli O'Hara, Victoria Clark and Danny Bernstein (who each have received 3 nominations for their performances in a musical this decade.)

Along side Kelli O'Hara; Jessie holds the most nominations for Best Leading Actor/Actress in a Play/Musical this decade. Both the actresses have received 3 nominations for ‘best lead actress in a musical’ since 2010.

Jessie is now tied with Danny Bernstein, Mark Rylance and Laurie Metcalf, who have all received 4 Tony nominations this decade (spread across musicals/plays and leading/featured roles.)

No one has received more than 4 performance nominations this decade.

I’ve held back from posting the actual video because I’m not sure exactly what the source is (it was on YouTube a long while back and since disappeared). But this is brilliant and deserves to be seen.

So, for those who don’t know, I love making these. It’s kind of my thing. When I love something, I almost feel like it’s my duty to share as much of it as possible and make it easier for other people who love it–or might love it–to find it. A couple years back, I used 8tracks to make a similar, but not nearly as comprehensive, playlist. But it fought me, and now there’s more to add, and I don’t feel like fighting with it again. That said, I bring you this collection of links to anything musical that any Jessie Mueller fan should absolutely hear. This will include YouTube links to official cast albums, videos of some performances, and other links to audio that people have uploaded from concerts and such. Sincerest thank yous to those who uploaded any of these.

I will try my best to keep this updated as I go. Also, if anyone is willing to provide/link to anything that should be on this list, I have a few things I could trade, so come talk to me. Also feel free to check out the Jessie audio tag on my blog for extra goodies.

Italics indicates this is a MUST listen
