All the shows they selected to see were shut out of the Tonys! Avenue Q was not on their list to see. Nor is Caroline or Assassins or I Am My Own Wife.
I guess they must realize now that they're not in the mainstream of American culture.

Posted: 6/7/04 at 10:22amthe tonys represent mainstream american culture? really? since when? not anytime recently. before we go patting each other on the back with what the mainstream of american culture comments there. zola, let's just see how the national tours of any of those shows through the heartland do. or are they even contemplating trying it?

Papa, you're too EASY this morning. That was intended for you and you bit at first glance. I can tell you've been away. You're rusty.
Let me tell you one thing: when those Republican boys get here, their backs are going to be the last thing that gets patted.

Hey! No fair! You two are ganging up on me.
Did Mamalovesmambo do a Nancy Reagan/Laura Bush and look all adoringly as you spoke, or was she more Teresa Heinz and following her own instincts?

Lets see: for their convention the republicans didn't book Avenue Q, I Am My Own Wife, Hairspray, The Producers, Assassins - mostly due to gay content but also, as in the case of Assassins, because of non g rated material. They are booking Phantom and Beauty and the Beast, despite (as Frank Rich said) both being set in France. Ah, the broad mindedness of Republicans is so wonderful to watch.
Off Broadway and most of the museums in NYC will also probably be free of any out of town Republican conventioneers and their families. Wouldn't want to change their Nascar - Rush Limbuagh limted way of not thinking.

oh don't even pretend you don't like it!
the mrs. definitely did not fit into political wife mode as she wiped out the boys in pool only losing to my brother (who sleeps with his cue), and doing her darnedest to polish off the keg while spinning tales and making friends. between her good natured drinking spree and my aunt (the ex-nun) doing shots with the bikers and keeping them rapt with her tales of europe on $5 a day in the 50's, i didn't have to do much more than sit back and explain that my 8-ball tattoo had nothing to do with pool.

I'm sure the churches will be empty too, while the delegates sleep off their drug and alcohol benders... those darn hypocrites...
I wish I could be in Boston, though. That will be the party of the year. I wonder how many dead hookers and empty ziploc bags will be fluttering through those New England streets...
