Because the show was struggling financially, the cast and crew were desperate for nominations at the Tony Awards, which would help sell tickets. The night before the nominees were announced, Groff and Michele ran across the street midshow from the theatre to the actor's chapel and prayed for nominations. Groff dropped $50 in the collection box, which Michele didn't know he was planning to do, and she had no money. The next day, the show found out they'd received 11 nominations, including best performance by a leading actor in a musical for Groff. Michele was not nominated.
