If they don't lose half of the television audience by then!

Does anyone know of the reaction of Kristin or Kelli to the new Oklahoma? Kelli claims that she knew nothing of South Pacific or Carousel. But she sure knew Oklahoma from the film. As did Kristin.
I expect that Kristin would embrace it. Kelli would praise the performances and some of the re-imagined takes on the book, but would stop short of endorsing it as a model for all future productions

amber grey lowkey deserved it but Ali also did because she was very innovative by performing while disabled. Either way, Hadestown is already mopping the floor, so it's ok.

Ali Stroker just scored the home run for inclusivity. And it was well earned. I hope we see some change from this.
2019 Tony Awards Reactions Thread#105
Posted: 6/9/19 at 9:25pmI saw Oklahoma! And Hadestown and I gotta say I think Stroker deserved it. It was close but her performance felt better when considering the material each actress was given.

Posted: 6/9/19 at 9:27pmI like that Casey Nicholaw's choreography just looks like a bunch of people flailing around as fast as humanly possible and yet it still looks good.

After that performance, there's a lot of love in my apartment (ok, that means just me, but still) for The Prom.

Posted: 6/9/19 at 9:29pmSo far, seeing Hadestown this season, Beetlejuice’s performance is the only performance that has enticed me to snag a ticket

Posted: 6/9/19 at 9:30pmNow I want to see The Prom. So far I feel like the performances are actually selling the shows.

The Prom has the performance of the night so far.
Amber looked absolutely FURIOUS when she lost.

Agree about Beetlejuice. Had I not already bought a ticket that surely would have made me break out the credit card. As for the others, not at all. Can’t wait to see what Hadestown is going to do!

She did? She said “Oh Ali.” And clapped, she didn’t look upset at all

Amber's mouth just has a downward curve. In Hadestown and The Great Comet she used that natural contour to good effect -- she's a great sneerer. She didn't look furious. Disappointed maybe but not mad.

She seemed nervous during the whole category announcement, so I don't think that's fury at all. Let's all chill out, haha.

I feel like OK suffered from the problem when shows aren’t able to just perform a full number from the show.
Doing the titles number without doing the staging done in the show meant crafting something new. And that something new looked...sloppy.
