Posted: 5/15/06 at 7:16pmI could see Chita or Barbara Cook accepting the award...although I may be very off...

Posted: 5/16/06 at 12:24amMy best bet would be Chita Rivera. It would make up for deeming THE DANCER'S LIFE a new musical and making her eligible in the Best Actress category.

Posted: 5/16/06 at 8:20amI say give it to Chita Rivera as compensation for making Dancers Life a musical. I also think if she cant get it Jonathan Tunick would be an excellent chocie as he has orchestrated so many great shows.

As I said in an earlier post here, if anybody (still alive today) deserves a lifetime achievement award, he does.
Great choice.

Harold Price, I guess, is a good choice. Don't worry, Chita will probably get one eventually. As for future "Lifetime Achivement" awards, I would like Kristen Cheoweth(one of the best comic actresses in musical theater today) and Lea Salonga(one of the best dramatic actresses today) to each get one eventually. I am talking years from now about Kriten and Lea.

Who is Kristine?
I would have given it to Ben Gazzarra this year. He deserves something for putting up with Elaine Stritch after all those years.

Kristin and Lea don't have anything near the accomplishments of Chita Rivera.
Give them about 25 years.
