50K: I know Cyndi Lauper recently won for Thirsty Boots music & Elton John for producing, I believe, Billy Elliot. Leaves Pacino who recently won for some classic play. I think. Meaning Andrews actually never won.
When 50/50 left Andrews, I was sure she was there as "best distractor", & had never won.

When preparing for the show, someone recommended I study the list of EGOTs and near-EGOTs. When looking at the list, Julie Andrews missing a Tony is one of the first, and most indelible things you notice.

They might be thirsty, too, but her musical is "Kinky Boots."

I was wrong about Pacino winning for a recent revived classic. He won in '69 for "Does a Tiger Wear a Necktie". Also, his 1st name is Alfredo & his producer, who he gave his Tony & Golden Globe to, recently auctioned them off.

Since I still have my lifelines, I'll use them, starting with the 50:50, which I'm guessing would have left B and D (Pacino and Andrews). Then try ATA.
