I LOVED Patti's "SHUT UP IT'S BEEN 29 YEARS!!!!!!!"

this is a thread I have to keep returning to! I keep thinking of more things to say.
re: Patti's speech. I know it sounds creepy, but one of my favorite parts of her speech was actually the shot of her husband crying. I also loved her gasping, overwhelmed speech when she won her Tony for Evita.
Alice Ripley's speech wasn't my favorite, but more because she was a little too shouty for me. I thought the core message of her speech was wonderful though.
I also have to agree with Lin-Manuel Miranda. he's adorable and charming and it was so nice that he tipped his hat to Sondheim.
and Angela Lansbury is just class. her Tony speech for when she won for Gypsy was elegant as well.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

Watching Angela win her Tony this year made me smile. When she was laughing in the beginning and was so shocked.
It was so sweet.
I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&.

"Gavin Creel- He didn't win but his would be amazing! " BAHAHAHAHA! That was hilarious, Chita. I'll add Raul Esparza and Sherrie Rene Scott to that list as well.

Haha, thank you. Our dreams would come true! Imagine if Gavin, Raul, Sherrie, and Karen all had Tonys?
Raul Esparza is already a Tony Award Winner...in my mind.

Michael Jeter's is also one of my favorite Tony performances.

as already mentioned i loved jeters, Lin manuels, Pattis etc. Those are all great Tony moments. My favorite is defintily when Sondheim won the second tony for company and just walked on stage and goes "its even nicer to win 2".

I really enjoyed Christian Hoff's because he was just so taken aback when he won. So nice to see a man's man weep.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
