Ken Davenport just posted that GODSPELL won musical revival.

Anyone know the other winners?

They did a ceremony last year to hand out the awards... are they planing on doing it again this year?

I'm so glad that GODSPELL is getting some recognition. The cast is absolutely dynamite and the show has become my guilty pleasure!

"Long live God!!!"

Every year I see these awards I am so grateful that the masses don't vote for the Tonys. I seriously don't think they got a single category right. Maybe Salesman, and that's about it.

Agreed, broadwaydevil, very much agreed.

Wat a surprise, the Gleeks got together and voted for Darren Criss. They also voted for 'Godspell' to win because Telly Leung was in it.

Perhaps worse than Godspell though (if that's even possible) is the win for Jeremy and Kara for best pair. I can think of 12 pairs that were better than the two of them this season. Jeremy was good in the big ensemble numbers with all the boys and nails his solos and Kara turns in a fine performance for her solo but the two of them together are almost unwatchable.

Can't be too upset about the wins for Christian Borle and Peter and the Starcatcher. Even if they won because of the Glee/Smash fans.

I thought "Something to Believe In" was a Frank Wildhorn/Linda Eder power ballad. Newsies's version is just as original (read: cliché). That won over "Watch What Happens," arguably the only good new addition to the score?

Should've been Jeremy and Laura...

sounds like a fun party, but from the noms you can totally tell where the voting is divided. nobody from Once was nominated, i've seen newsies & once & i'd give the "best onstage pair" to steve & cristin in a heartbeat.

I thought Peter and The Starcatcher was a musical?? Is it?

[dramamama611]

Posted: 5/14/12 at 5:21am

Nope...a play with music.

What a surprised hater like you like to single out Glee and Darren Criss. Don't like it? Too bad for you! Get over your hate already!
