I am @ work so I'm up for the rest of the night. Can't wait for the TONYs.

On my computer, if I'm watching a media file such as the web cast, I can't do much else, so only had my windows media player open plus browser open to the TheaterMania page which was constantly updating, while awards were going on. Thus, I haven't been following the discussion here tonight.

Of course I'm disappointed that Greg didn't win (ain't gonna lie), but then I'm proud of him no matter what. It truly is an honor to be among the nominees of this award. Happy for Norbert's win and for all the winners and nominees, for that matter. It was fun to watch, and I learned a lot about shows that I'll never have the opportunity to see. Got a kick out of the Altar Boyz number.

Thought Sherie did a great job with the song, although wondering what people will think when they go to the show and perhaps expect it to be sung in that style? I like the "show" style and the ballad style both myself.

Would somebody who watched the webcast please list the performances? I know Victoria, Sherie, Maureen and the Altar Boyz were scheduled to perform, but I didn't know about Janine LaManna and Kyra DeCosta. Any other surprises?

NBC, TheaterMania still has the page up from the awards ... go to the link and over on the right in the "lastest updates" column, you can read through all the evening's updates (winners, presenters, performances). In case the page is gone when you have a chance to check though, here are the performances, in order (I think you have them all, so no surprises here):

9:48pm - The cast of the Off-Broadway musical Altar Boyz, performing "We Are the Altar Boyz": Ryan Duncan, David Josefsberg, Andy Karl, Tyler Maynard, and Scott Porter. (And that was Sarah Izzo on the fogger!)

10:02pm - Maureen McGovern, performing "Days of Plenty" from Little Women

11:00pm - Janine LaManna and Kyra DaCosta performing "Baby Dream Your Dream" from the Broadway revival of Sweet Charity (accompanied by John Samorian)

11:13pm - Sherie Rene Scott, performing "Nothing Is Too Wonderful to Be True" from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (accompanied by Bill Charlap)

11:34pm - Victoria Clark, performing "Fable" from The Light in the Piazza (accompanied by Ted Sperling)
TheaterMania - Drama Desk Awards w/ all updates from last night

Thanks, JbaraFan!!
It'll be interesting to see how much of that makes the two-hour broadcast on PBS...hopefully they will keep all of the performances in!

(NBC, you're welcome!)

Not sure if this has been mentioned already but not all the winners were there to accept ... I can't remember who all ... Eric Idle was one for sure who wasn't present; there were others ... the updates didn't reflect who wasn't there to accept their award.
