Sorry, I missed the end of JLY's speech -- what happened? And did Fran reveal the Best Actress winner before she was supposed to?

Christine beating Lupone is fine by me...Lupone will win the Tony (Ebersol isn't in the running for that yet.) But if Patti's partner doesn't take home that top prize on Tony night...grrrrr.

Now that was a nice length speech!

Oh, absolutely, Ebersole was pretty much a lock, and well deserved. Still, I'm annoyed that Fran ruined it.

And Patti better take the Tony, damnit!

HA! Best replacement joke. Nice, Harvey!

Beth was so obnoxious in her speech. Lets hope CBS viewers are spared her high school drama student personality on the Tonys. Updated On: 5/21/06 at 11:43 PM

Yeah. Christian, Daniel and Bobby ran on, picked him up and carried him offstage in a rush.

oh trust me i wanted Marc and Mary to win quite a bit but am very happy for Christine because she seemed to be incredible and I loved her speech and can't wait for the show this fall.

Jonathan Pryce, you are my FAVORITE.

Who ran JLY off stage? And I must say I really enjoyed those orchestrations on DRS just now :)

And I love Jonathan Pryce for his comments. They were both robbed by lazy ass Tony committee writers who couldn't get out to see a show!!

Did they sweep JLY off as a "bit" or because he wouldn't stop talking? I missed it.

Awake and Sing! for revival of a play.


Yay!

When do these things end?

I'm going to be so incredibly tired at school tomorrow.

Posted: 5/21/06 at 11:47pm

YAY SWEENEY!!!

Yay! Sweeney Todd won the revival award!

[colleen_lee]

Posted: 5/21/06 at 11:47pm

Revival of a Musical - Sweeney! OF COURSE!

[new_philosophy_girl]

Posted: 5/21/06 at 11:47pm

well, if it was the rest of the boys who swept him off, I could see them doing it regardless of his speech length, because they are just that close

"Yawn, Christine. Another New Yorker has to bash LA. What a stale shtick."


Yeah. Hollywood casting aside women after they turn 30...that's so stale!!

But won't the exhaustion be worth it?

[EDIT] And, yep. It was the other three guys. Wound up be ironic, actually. I think they knew he went long...
