Titanique has 6:30 pm performances for many Sundays during its run.

I don't think Copeman was further extending this bad old joke; I think they were winking at the fact this idiotic rumor ever existed in the first place, as I think Michele herself has done once or twice.

It's not a problem if you identify as plural, meaning that you perceive more than one cognitive center within your body. That is a documented phenomenon, and I respect it, honestly.

Otherwise it's quite pretentious.

I mentioned on the other thread that this seems like something a regulator should be looking into. Perhaps, when we encounter this phenomenon, we should report it to the NYC Dept. of Consumer and Worker Protection here. I don't know how effective this might be, but it's cheaper than hiring a lawyer.

I understand that this poster has been disruptive for a long time and through many user names, but I can't see how this post would violate any rules. What is it that usually gets them banned in the end? I gather I generally don't get the chance to see those posts.

Just as a small point of information, I think Lightning Thief was eligible that season, but wasn't nominated.

I definitely felt that the Broadway production had a strong element of psychological horror, muted throughout most of the show but blossoming into a vivid nightmarescape near the end. I agree that this vibe is largely missing from the movie (which I still enjoyed).

My understanding is that it is illegal to advertise something as being on sale or discounted when that is not in fact the case. I think it's time for a regulator of some sort to look into this false-discount phenomenon.

I really don't want to see Passion stay at the bottom of the list forever, but I also can't bring myself to root for a show worthy of the big award to flop hard. I guess I'll have to wait until the Tony nominators and voters do something ridiculous, along the lines of awarding the Tony to Queen of Versailles. 

Has anyone suggested that maybe Tru with Jesse Tyler Ferguson is coming here for a limited run? Because that's what the pieces add up to for me.

Thank you both for your thoughts on this! The Tony website (linked in my post above) could be clearer about this; for some reason it doesn't list them as separate categories, which actually led me to ask the question.

Well, norovirus is going around, and it's definitely possible to go from completely asymptomatic to needing a bathroom immediately in the course of 80 minutes. (Don't ask how I know!)

Sharon Gless. Not even really joking.

A lot of us here probably know that 1971 was the only year that separate Tony Awards were given for music and lyrics, and that Stephen Sondheim won both for Company. But I'm curious as to how this was done. Were there separate nominations made for each category? Were they voted on separately, or were there just two awards given for the single winning score? 

The Tony Awards website isn't very helpful; it just lists six nominees for three nominated shows (Company, The Rothschilds, and The Me Nobody Knows), including Sondheim twice. If the two awards were truly separated, we might expect different shows to be nominated for each category, but that's not the case. 

Anyhow, does anyone have any light to shed here? Were Bust Music and Best Lyrics truly treated as separate categories in 1971, or were separate awards given for one category?
