Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:06pmChoreography most definitely! I mean I love the show, but there isn't any realy choreography outside of jumping, stopping, and hand motions...

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:07pmDitto. I mean, come on, the book and choreography are not good.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:08pmUmm, anyone that has seen GREY GARDENS knows that it deserved the Best Book prize, it just baffles me that it lost that award. Well, it certainly didn't deserve Best Score over GREY GARDENS either but at least I saw that one coming.

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:08pmCompletely agree that it should not have won for book or choreography.

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:09pmI love SA but legally blonde should have won for best choreography and Grey Gardens should have won best book.

Legally Blonde should've taken choreography, and Grey Gardens should have taken book.
That was some bull****.

It's another case of the TONY voters getting jaded.
SA will probably sweep.
So sad. So undeserving.

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:17pmThe book thing for me is because, as others have pointed out, the "book" for SA was basically given to them with the play. It wasn't created from nothingness.

Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:20pmnot like my opinion matters but im very upset with the tony voters so far tonight.
#23re: The OFFICIAL S.A. Didn't Deserve Thread
Posted: 6/10/07 at 9:20pmGrey Gardens should have won for book and most especially score. Does anyone know how I can contact the brilliant Korie and Frankel? I would like to write a letter of encouragement. I'm sure they already know they're great, but I'm sure they'd like to hear from a fan.
