Roman, are you aware that you will be seeing Cole's second to last show (for the foreseeable future, at least)? You are one lucky duck! Wish I could get the chance to see them too, but I just haven't had the time. Anywho, I hope you enjoy your shows; especially your rite of passage to the Ambassador tomorrow. Have fun!

Snubbed but not forgotten - Tony Awards appreciation for unsung cast & creatives

All of these were disappointing, however the only real shock for me was David Thaxton being snubbed for his work in Sunset Boulevard and Chris Sieber for Death Becomes Her. Thaxton's ability to convey one of the most visceral performances of the season was truly remarkable and Sieber's unbelievable comedic timing (especially in the puppet scene) was peak camp. Also, not a surprise but still a disappointment: I really wanted to see Lesli Margherita get nominated. 12 year

Someone mentioned Carmen Cusack way back when this thread was first started, and I second that. Jennifer Simard would also be interesting. I personally would love to see Micaela Diamond, though.

What on earth would that even be? Hamilton's corpse sitting on a turntable for 3 hours?

Not every show does get a standing ovation mid performance. On Friday, I saw Sunset Blvd and neither of Nicole’s numbers received standing ovations. Patti did not receive a standing ovation for TLWL when I saw Company. Prolonged? Yes, but not standing. Audra’s standing ovation mid-show is unique for me, so I felt it was interesting to state.

Just thought it was interesting. I don’t get into the city much, so this was my first mid-show standing-o.

I was at last night’s performance and the energy in the theatre was palpable. Absolutely insane. I’ve never been a part of such a reactive audience.
I felt Audra was everything I could possibly need in a Mama Rose. Tyrannical and overbearing while also vulnerable and broken. She didn’t really slip into her operatic voice at any point besides the end of “Everything’s Coming Up Roses” and “Rose’s Turn”, which (as a previous p

I was there last night too! Scherzinger is giving one of the best performances I have had the privilege of witnessing on the Broadway stage. Francis, Thaxton, and Hodgett-Young were also incredible. The direction and lighting were striking. The show felt like a horror film towards the end, which is something I have never experienced in live theatre. I was genuinely scared by Scherzinger and Thaxton. I don’t have anything to complain about for this production besides the St. James sight

I hate to be that guy, but do we know the timeline for how long it should take Audra et al to recover. I know that nobody can read the future, but if those familiar with the current cold/flu/virus which is going around could chime in, that would be appreciated.

So did LuPone.
I’d like to add Heather Headley to the list of potential Rose alternates.

This isn't an issue with the theaters, this is an issue with the pedicabs. The city of New York should be passing a law on these a-holes.
