I'm seeing Jodie Comer in Prima Facie tonight. I purchased my ticket in early April, so it just so happens that tonight is her performance post-Tonys. I'm seeing The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window next Thursday and Good Night, Oscar in July (tickets also purchased in April). I've seen all the other Tony-winning shows except for Shucked. I'm really looking forward to tonight's performance!

It would be impressive if someone was seeing Topdog/Underdog tonight.

They're gonna have to hold the show a good minute tonight when the lights go up on Kimberly Levaco and her candy necklace!

I will be there at Kimberly Akimbo tonight and definitely looking forward to contributing to the love fest from the audience. It will be my second post-Tony performance for a Best Musical winner - the last was In the Heights in 2008.

I’ll be at Kimberly Akimbo tonight as well. I went back and forth on it, because I know folks on here have stated first performances post-Tony wins can be annoying in terms of audience basically applauding themselves, but I really wanted to be there to see the love this cast has for their show and to respectfully reciprocate that.

I was at the matinee on Sunday and she was nerrrrvoussss as anything! To be fair, I also would be too! Amazing performance and can’t wait to get back next weekend one last time before closing.

Can only imagine the thunderous applause Alex will get tonight after "Independently Owned".

They didn’t win anything, but I’m still going to support my Fat Ham again

I'll be at Sweeney's first performance tomorrow matinee after its wins for Lighting Design and whatever the second one was? Wasn't expecting it to win any major awards, it just worked out that way.

Oh, Sound Design, duh. I haven't seen it since the first preview, so I'll definitely be listening closely.

Steven Boyer is out of Kimberly tonight, of course. What else is new?

The Pridebills at the Booth tonight have special stickers that read “2023 TONY AWARD WINNER BEST MUSICAL”, and they’re giving out candy necklaces again, just like the first preview.

What an asshole for wanting to spend time with his 2-week-old baby!

god forbid he spends time with his one week old. Hilarious to me that some people on here would like actors to treat themselves like robots without any familial or personal responsibilities.

Sorry, forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me.

Youd think someone who posts as frequently and rationally as Taffy would have generated enough cred that we dont jump to conclusions here---they clearly werent intending to criticize him for taking time off with his baby.

Rude. You should delete this bullsh*t comment. Congratulations to Steven and his lovely wife tho!

I was so happy to be at wonderful Kimberly Akimbo performance tonight. 
they gave out candy necklaces and a special playbill with A "best musical" seal on it. 
the audience was showing so much love. When Victoria first appeared behind the scrim, the audience gave her so much love with a long standing ovation. Every cast entrance was greeted with so much love. And Bonnie couldn't begin talking due to all the love. It was truly an amazing night to be part of. 
at the curtain call, the cast re-entered the stage with giant letters that spelled SUBLIME CAST. And they shuffled the letters to re-spell BEST MUSICAL. It was wonderful.

Comer was in control of her nerves tonight and delivered a powerful performance demonstrating that she deserved her Tony. Kudos to her! I was NOT disappointed!!

He is.

But he has also been out an inordinanate amount of times since the show started last fall, as it is I believe Buddy is the only track that has a cover (A.J Holmes) because Boyer is out seemingly every other week
