I was at An American In Paris last night sitting next to Tony Bennett. He single handedly led two mid-performance standing ovations.

The An American in Paris cast album is officially released today on Sony Masterworks. Take a listen:

I attended this past Sunday mattinee. Callow is a truly superior actor in this one man/woman exploration of his identity and relationship with a father. Introspective and cerebral but quite entertaining and touching. The ending of the play is clear if you listen and are attentive.

If he wins, and I hope he does, it'll be because of the whole shootin' match. No one in any show (with the exception on Curious Incident) has to put out as much sheer energy and call on as much talent in every area as Fairchild and do it all in such an accomplished way. The only one that comes close, in my opinion, is Tony Yazbek. Further, considering this is his first theater outing let alone Broadway this warrants his win.

I go with Fairchild. His presscence in AAIP is massive and nothing competes with the final 14' dream ballet. My second choice is Yazbek for his rendition of Lonely Town as well as being a wonderful dancer. This is very difficult.

I'll go with Max con Essen or Brandon Uranowitz in American in Paris. Not the front runners but their contributions are formidable.

It's almost "criminal" that these shows must compete against each other, this is an example of why awards are so absurd. But since the awards exist I vote big time for An American in Paris.

This is a first rate posting. Thanks, so nice to see something really positive on this BB.

If the ability to project performance art at its highest level together with demonstrating incredible power and stamina, let alone sing and act (well), then indeed ROBERT FAIRCHILD should be the choice. However, Tony voters might have other lesser criteria.

Amazing how a few weeks, or even days ago, the buzz on these boards by many were that this show was dead and buried. Wow, I've been calling this THE WINNER for months. Handicaping ain't so easy at the track and certainly not B'way. Congrats to this original, inspired and powerhouse show.

@indytallguy............I have absolutely no objection to personal criticism of this or any other show, movie, book or ANYTHING for that matter, but don't you think it is only fair and wise TO FIRST HAVE SEEN OR EXPERIENCED IT.  So many folks, it seems, just want to be noticed and would pull the wings off a butterfly if it got them there.

This show, if successful and maybe even if not, will have pushed the boundaries of dance (ballet) on B'way. It is in my opinion the third step in the evolution of dance in a B'way show. First was Agnes DeMille (Oklahoma and Carousel) Second was Jerome Robbins (West Side Story) and now Christopher Wheeldon.

If the entire scene in context can be done from AN AMERICAN IN PARIS, then the show stopper performance would be MAX VON ESSEN "I'll Build a Stairway to Paradise".
