No censoring of April's speech.

this is one of my favorite parts. The butterfly story and Bobbie's story thereafter. hehe

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

For the 1,004,567,006th time -- PBS did NOT film (nor edit or direct or produce) this COMPANY film. It was funded and filmed by private sources who took it upon themselves to preserve this production.

PBS does NOT film any of these Broadway shows -- private companies do all this. PBS only airs them as part of their Great Performances series.

LOL Tink! The tuba stroking is so oddly erotic.

I agree spidey, it was very "soap opera cliffhanger zoom".

This is by far my favorite scene in the whole show.

1. Well done, Lonny Price. Please direct all stage to screen tapings from now on. This is far superior to PIAZZA's taping. Who directed that?

2. Featured Actress Nominations should have gone to Elizabeth Stanley and Heather Laws. If there were room for one more, I would give it to Angel Desai. I *still* don't get where all the raving came from regarding Barbara Walsh's performance. She is completely in the dark compared to the three actresses I listed above. Rebecca Luker and Charlotte d'Amboise were only nominated because of who they are, not because of their performances, which is unfortunate.

3. I loved the cheers Heather Laws got from the audience after "Not Getting Married Today."

Everyone in Orlando:

we didn't miss alot, they picked up the signal sent out to the people who started it at 9. we only would've missed twenty minutes, instead we're missing a whole hour. it's just ridiculous! how did this happen?

Barbara and Bruce were my favorite couple. I think both their performances were very subtle.

Can I start a petition to the name of Joanne to Elaine? Not only was La Stritch's performance completely definitive, but I think that she IS the role. Barbara isn't necessarily imitating her, but the role is Elaine. It's kind of crazy.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.
