"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Side Show was 1998! (Year of Cabaret, Sound of Music, Ragtime, etc.)

I would LOVE a copy of 1997!!!! My mother taped over mine! (She taped over the freakin' year of BEBE NEUWIRTH!!!! There WAS hell to be paid when I learned of this misfortune!)

I have all Tony Awards taped from 1995 (Sunset Blvd.) onwards - without any of those annoying commercials.
