Posted: 5/11/12 at 7:52amNo doubt about it - 2013 Best Actress in a Musical Tony Award - Amy Adams. Donna Murphy would probably be nominated too though...

Posted: 5/11/12 at 7:55amGet "her" Tony? Like it's been deprived of her for years now? She's great but let's wait and see how her performance is. The Bakers Wife is one of the trickiest roles in all of American Musical Theatre to pull off and even some really great actresses can't get it right.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Why is the baker's wife one of the trickiest roles in Musical theatre?

What about whoever plays Loretta Lynn? That's got to be a great role.
But I'll make a prediction too:
Amy will sing in Into The Woods.
There. I said it. I know it's early in the season, but I'm sticking by it.

I wonder if he can predict what color panties she will be wearing when she accepts this Tony that she has been so mysteriously deprived of?

Posted: 5/11/12 at 10:13amAnd if it DOES transfer, how do you know her committments will allow HER to do so? Can we at least wait until someone actually sees her in the role?
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

And I am certain that whoever is cast as the Baker will definitely win the Tony- and the Oscar when they decide to film the production as I am certain they will.
I got all this from the Mayans by the way.

Posted: 5/11/12 at 12:42pmWell, thank God that's settled.

It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 5/11/12 at 12:51pmNo doubt about it! There will be no other musicals next season with any other lead actress roles. Heck, Into the Woods won't even have to transfer and Amy will win a Tony. She's THAT good in the part already! Anyone who doesn't think so is just jealous and has no class. Amy Adams is a LOCK.

"Why is the baker's wife one of the trickiest roles in Musical theatre?"
I second this and would love to see a thread on what IS a tricky role. I imagine Spiderman must have tricky roles given the setup.
The Baker's Wife is a probably one of the better roles in the show. She has a good arc, her songs are meaningful and she gets some good jokes. Adams will be micced and we've heard her sing.

Posted: 5/11/12 at 4:26pmThere will be no Tony Awards in 2013, not much of anything for that matter - what with the world ending this year.

Posted: 5/12/12 at 2:02amProbably best to wait until she actually gives a performance. Just because the originator won, doesn't mean the revival star will.....see "Evita"
#22Amy Adams will get her Tony if Woods transfers
Posted: 5/12/12 at 4:16amSecond that @Leadingplayer and see the last revival of Into the Woods. Who got a Tony there? No one!

Posted: 5/12/12 at 10:40pmI think the role is tricky because Joanna Gleason did such an interesting job in the original and the performance was videotaped so everybody can compare later performers to Gleason's version.
