I am so thrilled for Kelli.

Finally made a return visit to Fleet Street on Sunday. I thought Sutton was absolutely remarkable, Aaron was horribly mediocre. Not great, not bad. Just a lot of missed potential. What was that accent? Why did he talk so slowly the entire show? It was a miss for me. Everyone else was in great shape, ensemble and pit included. 

Yet again, Sutton proves why she is the best at what she does. Each line is a full meal. AND! She sounded wonderful. 

Count me in on Team Kelli for the win. Compared to every other category, her performance is a cut above. She was lucky to have the best material of any of them, but combine that with her talent, the fact that she birthed the idea for the project, and her being universally adored in the community. 

Two-time Tony Award Winner Kelli O'Hara. Let's go!!!

I could see Taub gaining momentum for leading actress. 

As for featured, I feel about Bebe winning for Cabaret the same way I felt about Patti winning for Company. It's just a no-brainer for a great lady of the stage playing an iconic role to win their third Tony in a role that has never won before. 

That being said, featured categories are always going to have some unexpected people thrown in.

With Benanti as Phylis. 

Is Eden back in? I'm going tomorrow and she's really the only reason I'm seeing the show. 

This cast, 30 piece orchestra, original choreography!!

I LOVE that the Kimberly Akimbo kids are in this.

Maybe I'm ill-informed. Is there not a regular buy SRO system at the box office before the performance? Is SRO only done through the lottery?

Roundabout could pick this up, similar to Caroline or Change. Another Caissie connection. 

I would still love for Rachel Bay Jones to get another crack at it after the Kennedy Center production a few years back. Felt a little undercooked at the time. 

Has anyone been able to get in this way? Thinking of doing it next week for a matinee. Any insight on others' experiences would be appreciated! 

Is it true that Doubt actually is offering in-person rush tickets? I've seen videos talking about it, but their rush is not publicized anywhere so I'm unsure. 

I never have luck with TodayTix Digital Rush, so I'd love to be able to go in-person.

Appreciate any insight!

They're doing White Christmas over the holidays. 

Going tomorrow. Usually see 1 or 2 shows a year at Manhattan School since it's near my home. Always talented students and great orchestras. Love Nine, but have never seen it so I'm thrilled! 

The only time in my life was at Almost Famous. Not only no standing ovation, but it was probably the quietest and tamest audience I've ever been apart of. And the curtain call was essentially a rock concert moment. Incredibly awkward when there's no noise in the house and everyone's walking out or still seated. That was a rough night of theatre IMO.

So excited about Robyn. Hopefully, this sets a new precedent at Chicago for casting new and age-appropriate Velma's.

She was very missed.

Yes. Im very interested to hear peoples reactions. I think it's wonderful they did this to honor the great Tommy Tune's Birthday. Also wondering if Tommy Tune was in attendance?"

Tommy Tune was there at the first performance. They sang Happy Birthday for him.
