I haven't seen anything on Broadway.com about who is the winner, but I have heard (from a reliable source) that the winner is Norbert...just wondering if anyone knew when they were going to announce it.
Norbert's great, but I wanted Chita to get it for publicity purposes. If attendance is that low things aren't good.
Yay Norbert!
I'm glad he won too. He is truely a star. He and Victoria Clark were the best performers last season.
I'm sorry but Norbert was not nearly as deserving for that as Chita was.
I can't find real logic to the nominees, and I'd swap half of them for people who are more deserving and weren't on the list... but whatever. Congratulations to Norbert!
Too bad Christina deserved it SWAY more then anyone
For overall achievement and determinationd in 2005 - Christina deserved it.
But the true STAR is Chita. She is a LEGEND and ofcourse one of the few great triple threats from the golden age still living. No one on that list has made the accomplishments yet that Chita made.

*sends love for Patti* I doubt she'll win, but at least she was (deservedly) nominated.

Chita is NOT the star of 2005.
NOT.
What are you on???
WIthout question it belongs to Norbert. People who had no idea who he was a year ago now do and are VERY impressed. For example, my parents just saw DRS and came out saying "Who WAS that guy??? He TOTALLY stole the show!"

Oy, ljay. JUST LET IT GO.
But hooray for Norbert!
There's a link to the whole story on the main page of NLBOnline. Check it out. More priceless Norbert quotes!
How exciting! My reasoning behind my vote was selected for inclusion in the "reader reactions to Butz" portion of the article! (I'm Shelby of Bountiful, Utah, by the way, not Muriel of Omaha).
Congratulations to a truly deserving performer.
