His great grandma (Dot) comes to him in a flashback vision-like kind of thing.

I agree, DrewBill. I knew it wasn't going to win much. Gypsy had definitely stole the spotlight; there wasn't really much hope. What I was a little surprised about was South Pacific winning over Gypsy. I can understand why... and that was Broadway's golden era and it's great to see it come back, but over Gypsy? Oh my.
I still feel that the revival deserved something more. Maybe it's because I'm biased being that it is a music-all-by-Sondheim show. Maybe that's why I enjoyed it so much.

I think In the Heights hit a lot of heartstrings. It was an original idea, and both Cry Baby and Xanadu were ideas taken from movies. Passing Strange was just, well, scary. I think it was well deserved, and I give Lin a lot of credit for his work.
But I wasn't super excited about any of the nominees this year. Of all of them, I'm glad Heights won.

Exactly. That's why I *personally* Raul didn't win for Homecoming, because it closed in April. It's about promotion.
The next time I'm seeing Sunday is the 25th, when is it closing? The 29th or something?
Anyway, I feel it was genius. I'd say that Daniel and Jenna don't have this "sexual chemistry" because of George's character -- very closed off and withdrawn. You can tell that Dot is trying, but George has a hard time expressing emotion. But that's just my opinion. Other than that, I agree.
And I also think that it deserved far more. I was routing for them in every category, and I feel like they never got their moment for an incredible production.
