Well since it seems as though no one has started a thread on this.
Yay John Gallagher Jr won!
He so deserved it!
That was one highlight of the show for me, along with Audra's performance, and Julie White's win.
Go John!

He definitely deserved it. He is hands down the best part of "Spring Awakening."

Definitely the highlight of the evening...now I really wish I'd told him to start preparing his Tony speech after I saw the show in March.

I'm glad he won, he diserved it. He is wonderful in Spring Awakening. I thought it was really cute how he quoted the show "Truly, truly, truly, heaven must feel like this"

Of all of the Tony's SA got, this one was truly well-deserved. I've seen a certain video sites' clips of him, and he's phenomenal. So great job, JG!

When I saw the show in December, I left the theater saying "the show was ok, nothing great, but that gallagher kid was amazing". I am happy he got the win.

I also wanted to throw in some congragulations for him!

Great performance in the show, and well worth his Tony. It's nice to have someone so young win an award along with all the other...older people, haha. His speech was really great, and I loved the addition of the SPRING AWAKENING line.

I'm really happy for him, he's a great guy, and really deserved the award.

I knew he would win since Spring Awakening opened. I am so happy for him, he deserved it. I went more than JHud over Gallagher winning.

Congratulations to JG! He sounded a bit monotonous on his acceptance speech but then must be the nerves :P I am happy he won!

My favorite award given of the night (though Julie White's is extremely close). So fantastic in SPRING.

"I think I'm in love with that man...no lie"

you think?.....omg i know im in love with him and I get to meet him this summer when I see the show!!!.....hopefully. Has anyone ever seen him at the stage door after the show before? If so, is he usually willing to take picture with people....I don't know how i'll even be able to get out the words to ask him but I can work on that later....

I have a crush on him, too, I will admit.

I have seen him after the show at the stage door, though not talked to him personally. He's very sweet to all the fans, staying to talk with most groups 10 minutes each or so. He'll take a picture, sign things, etc. He's even starred in a few YouTube videos on fan request.
