I wanted Bee to win!
I get lost, unless, of course, I'm getting found.

I think the winner should have won. Spamalot.

Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

re: BEST MUSICAL

There should be some sort of broadway people's choice awards. I know there's like a hundred online ones, but an official Broadway's People's choice awards thats televised and everything. I think it'd be pretty cool. And we also vote on the musical numbers for the cast to perform. (i think the only good performance at the Tony;s this year was Spelling Bee and Piazza.)

re: BEST MUSICAL

I had the most giddy fun at "Spamalot" the first time I saw it--the second time it seemed much less fizzy. "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels," was a very good, old-fashioned book musical with some clever songs and engaging performances. "Spelling Bee," has been fading in my memory ever since I saw it--funny book, nice performances, but just OK songs. "Piazza," while it has its faults, by and large sustained a compelling emotional atmosphere through the melding of every aspect of its production (sets, costumes, lighting, direction, acting/singing, book, and music)--it had "that certain something" that has stayed with me. So I would have to give "Piazza" the prize, finally.

re: BEST MUSICAL

I've only seen Piazza and Bee and absolutley ADORED both and have just purchased tix for Spamalot (in late August...Ive got connections LOL!) and DRS for the first weekend in August but based on Piazza and Bee soley, I still think Bee should have won. It was innovative, funny, intelligent, moving, and really a beautiful show, believe it or not. Piazza is also a wonderful show that gets two thumbs way up from me but Bee has the edge here.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee deserved the 2005 Tony for Best Musical

I think Piazza deserved to win.
