Here you go. I, for one, am happy that "Something Rotten" has decided to do "A Musical". For marketing purposes, what better way to sell tickets?

They didn't tell us what American in Paris and Gigi are performing

WTF
Philly, that show closed

I get that "Ring of Keys" is the most popular song from the show, but it would have been nice to feature the rest of the cast in a different song.

Roxy, what are you talking about?

WTF is a song from If/Then called "What The ****"

Gigi is doing "The Night They Invented Champagne"

Medleys always bomb on the Tonys. Be forewarned.

I am way ahead of you there Goth. Hate them with a passion.

Have you guys seen The Wild Party on the Tonys? I think it's one of the best Tony performances. Ever.

I'm I the only one who doesn't mind medleys at the Tony Awards? THE KING AND I medley might be really good.
Posted: 5/29/15 at 3:24am
"Gigi is doing "The Night They Invented Champagne""
What else would they do? It's been a while since I've seen Gigi, but isn't that the only song that has any real energy in the show?

^It also has Vanessa Hudgens and Tony Nominee Victoria Clark in that number.

"I'm I the only one who doesn't mind medleys at the Tony Awards? THE KING AND I medley might be really good."
I don't mind medleys ether. Several of the most memorable performances on the Tonys have been medleys. Such as Jersey Boys, Mary Poppins, Spring Awakening, South Pacific, Matilda, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, etc.

"Several of the most memorable performances on the Tonys have been medleys."
And several have made the shows look ridiculous. Aspects of Love and Once On This Island, both were good shows but their use of medleys made the show look like a confused mess.
I still think the best Tony performance that I've actually seen on original broadcast was "A New Argentina" from Evita. It was electric.
Also, "Turkey Lurkey Time" looks great. Thank you YouTube.
I think it's the one song performances that do better.

"
Absolutely not true. It has "the Parisians", "the gossips", "thank heaven for little girls", "Paris is Paris again", I never want to go home again", "the contract","Gaston's soliloquy" and there was a possibility they wanted to highlight Victoria Clark, since she was nominated to a Tony with her song "say a prayer".

"Medleys always bomb on the Tonys." Always?
"And several have made the shows look ridiculous."
So that first statement is not true.
Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't.
I don't like it when they try to cram the whole show into the performance, like "Once on this Island", or they make it sound like a "Greatest Hits" record from Ronco (look it up).

"I don't like it when they try to cram the whole show into the performance, like "Once on this Island"
Once On This Island only did two songs. One ballad, one up tempo. They should have dropped the ballad and just done the up tempo Mama Will Provide.
I think we are all glad to see the performances, but really the sole purpose of doing a number is to sell the show and some shows haven't done that very well.

"Higher Love" would've been such a great Tony number.
RIP, Honeymoon in Vegas.

I'm so torn, because I love Ring of Keys, and Sydney gives a wonderful performance every time she sings it, but I'm almost worried its starting to be an overused song at this point, because it seems like she's always singing it. I wish, for a cast that's made up of 5 Tony Nominees, their performance choice was something that's more inclusive of them all, but at the same time, I can't say what I'd chose if I were them either, so maybe it is the best option.
