Posted: 6/10/12 at 10:44pmTough night for Follies. To come across the country after closing in LA last night and to come away empty is so cruel. Wanted Danny but can't be sad about Steve winning. Anyone but Jordan and Newsies. Most overrated show in recent memory.
The only review of a show that matters is your own.

Is it ironic if Jan robs Audra?

Posted: 6/10/12 at 10:48pmWhile great, Danny was super miscast, he is like 15 years to young to be playing that part.

If they can rob Hoffman anything is possible
Burstein not getting is the biggest robbery since The Brinks Job

Posted: 6/10/12 at 10:51pmLike, honestly? To me, Ron Raines was better. Danny was great but not "best" or anything. To me of the four he was the least impressive.

Posted: 6/10/12 at 10:51pmHaving not seen the show, his Tony performance DID NOT seem like a Tony winning performance.

I love Danny Burstein. His being in "Follies" was a deciding factor for me buying a ticket. I felt my anticipation building for his big number and, despite being sure I would love it before it began, I was kind of disappointed.
I'm not surprised he didn't get the Tony.

Posted: 6/10/12 at 10:55pmI never got the love for Burstein in Follies. And I saw it 10 times! He was fine in it. Workman like. Jan Maxwell and Teri White were outstanding.

Posted: 6/10/12 at 11:02pmGuys, you realize you are watching a big TV commercial, right? Or do you think its coincidence that most of the winners are in shows that are still running?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Follies and Jan, sure...Danny, especially after seeing how clumsily the whole number was produced on the Tonys, not so much.
Follies seriously got screwed. Even after after all its awards, I still have no desire to see "Porgy."

Posted: 6/10/12 at 11:17pmOh, sure it's a big TV commercial, but I still get a little too overhyped for Tony night. All of the actors nominated in his category were quite talented, though. It wasn't like he lost to a cast member of Jersey Shore in a revival of Odets' GOLDEN BOY. (Hey, good stunt casting there. Any idiot producers wanna steal?)
