Just like there's no convincing some of his haters that he's capable of ever doing anything right. I know he's written some real tur

Oh girl you knew you were going to hate this before you saw it. Why do you constantly attend things that go against your narrow aesthetic?

I think that riffing nonsense is fine for pop music, but when you do it every time on every song, one has to wonder if it’s a cover up for lack of actual singing abilities.

Is Shoshanna Bean incapable of singing a song as it was written? And her mini-me in the other role is taking quite a few liberties as well. Pass.

It’s cute that the article refers to it as “critically acclaimed”.

Most auctions of the celebrity kind fetch much higher than their listed value. I’m sure the blonde wig will go for much higher than it is listed at.

Best Original Score -- not televised?
Jun 11
2018, 03:57:37 AM
Every year CBS tries things to get people who normally don’t watch the Tonys to watch, and it never works. I’m sure CBS will eventually end their contract, and perhaps then PBS or a cable network (or even streaming outlet) will be able to give the show the broadcast it deserves.

It probably took 10 minutes to read all the songwriters for Spongebob.
Usually if there's a famous name up for the award, and more importantly favored to win, they'll televise it. It was part of the main ceremony for many, many years, though.

THE OFFICIAL 2018 TONY AWARDS VIEWING THREAD

It's just so lovely to read such bigotry and homophobia on a Broadway Message Board, of all places. Gay winners can't thank their legal spouses? Should they call them their "roommate" to please the small amount of people watching the Tonys who are offended by such things?
And apparently if you like something that someone doesn't (coughaftereightcough) you're a trend following tool incapable of forming your own opinions. I'm all for

If Patti Lupone's Memoir Came Out Again..
May 27
2018, 03:28:04 AM
She has more than enough material for a second book. In addition to what’s been mentioned in this thread, she could also cover.
1. Her auditioning for Woody Allen for Bullets Over Broadway. I’m sure she has plenty of tea to spill.
2. More information on the Hello, Dolly! Revival that Jerry Herman put a stop to.
3. And she must have many more stories of men treating her unfairly throughout her career.
4. Her work in TV and film since her first memoir. I’d

After her stunning performance of “Chain of Love” on her new love album, I’d love to see Audra do Grass Harp.
Henry, Sweet Henry has a magnificent score that far outweighs any flaws in the book.
The Rink would also be killer with some top notch casting. LuPone and Benanti are ideal casting.
If they could get a powerhouse lead, Seesaw would be fun to see.
I’m sure City of Angels is on their radar. People always claim it’s an expensive show to produce, but

Question: Are ensemble members TECHNICALLY eligible for featured Tonys?
May 3
2018, 02:22:47 AM
I think the only way a Chorus Tony could work if it was as a Special Tony, and not a competitive category (with the option of not having to award it every year). The chorus of Dolly deserved something like this. But it needs to be awarded to an ensemble that truly stands out.
