At the very top of the Theatermania website there is a link for the Drama Desk Awards. It takes you to your Windows Media Player, which tells you the show starts at 9 EST.

Is Windows Media Player the only thing it's compatible with?

Why aren't they on TV this year? Or are they and I'm just completely missing it?

I guess so. Requires Windows Media Player version 10 or newer. I thought it airs later tonight in the NYC area. No?

Off-topic, but is Theater Mania's logo supposed to represent Comedy/Tragedy masks?

Yah there is. The following link is for Mac OS X, if that's what you have. And Windows Media Player 9 is working fine for me.

I think the webcast is live only... I was on a plane during last years.

Right now I'm just seeing the Theater Mania logo, not the stage or anything.

me too. BroadwayPer4mer03- are you able to see stuff going on on theatermania's webcast? or are you watching tv in NY? Because I'm also only seeing the logo saying it starts at 9pm Eastern

mac users:
try downloading flip4mac. It plays windows media content with quicktime. It seems to work for me. I mean, I only get the theatremania logo like others have said. Hope it still works come 9pm.

flip4mac download

The live footage was only at about 7:45, I think when they were just testing to see that it was working. It's been the logo and soft jazz since 8.

I don't hear/see anything! It's 8:45, is anything happening?

Posted: 5/20/07 at 8:48pm

There was a sound check a few times. Then it went back the main screen. I'm patiently waiting along with other people.
