...I for one will just watch the first part of the Tonys on mute, with sondheim playing in the background. There, problem solved!

What a waste of airtime CIRLCE OF LIFE is. We could've gotten numbers from LM and YF instead; shows that are ironically enough the two biggest draws for CBS's ratings this year most likely. Or maybe a medley? Anything but the same exact number they did 10 years ago.


...And so, there I was at the stage door for "Equus". The enthused avalanche of "Harry Potter" fans was literally pushing me into the barricades. As I was thrust face-first into Daniel Radcliffe's hat, I suddenly felt the thumb of a lanky gentleman behind me pressing firmly into my back. It was then that I realized that both of his hands had Playbills, and that both arms were outstretched in front of me...

Have any of you seen the TONY pool at www.theproducersperspective.com? They're giving away a free I phone. Looks pretty cool!

Ok I thought that was a cool offer so perhaps I got overzealous. Didn't mean to be a sock puppet

Still Think Gypsy should do the Strip, or gotta have a gimmick

well i think we can all safely say that "gotta get a gimmick" is probobly not getting performed, whereas the nominated musicals usually try to feature at least one nominated performer. (a notable acception was the kiss me kate revival that performer "too darn hot" instead of anything showcasing their nominees.

In my opinion, Gypsy should do "Together, Whereever we Go", as all 3 of the nominated stars would get to perform, however I hope they do "Everything's Coming Up Roses" or "Rose's Turn".

I would love for GYPSY to do "Together". It's a really fun number that shows off all three principals really well.


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.

This thread is so pointless. It's so annoying opening it everyday and still seeing TBA.

GYPSY should do 'Everything's Coming Up Roses' it features all 3 leads. And showcases Patti. They WILL want to show showcase Patti.

"GYPSY should do 'Everything's Coming Up Roses' it features all 3 leads. And showcases Patti. They WILL want to show showcase Patti."

Though that would be phenomenal I would like them to see them do Together because Laura and Boyd don't do anything in Everything's Coming Up Roses except stand there. This is by far the strongest Rose, Louise, and Herbie in history so i think since they all have a chance at winning a tony they should do a number that will showcase their talents. I have always hated when someone wins a tony and they are not mainly featured in the tony performance.

I honestly doubt they will do TOGETHER. It does NOT showcase Patti.
'Everything's coming up' is a show-stopping moment for Patti. At least Boyd and Laura can be featured in it. Trust me, Patti is the selling point of this show and they WILL want to showcase her.
