Given the high response to Urinetown and the fact that NYCC is including it in their line-up, I hope that means we'll have a revival soon!

GYPSY almost tied with BEETLEJUICE?  Oyy!!

Seems like there are a lot of tweens voting and skewing the results.

I would think we would collectively rally behind She Loves Me, but here we are.

So we're still voting for the show that we like best, so it can win Silver, essentially?

Please let it be Follies or Gypsy or something. I mean...Mean Girls, really?

Can anyone explain how the shows are paired up? I mean, bummer that it's WEST SIDE STORY vs PIPPIN when really, both should have made it to the final rounds...
