I can't believe she wasn't nominated!! I'm still like "wtf?!?!?". She's so amazing in Xanadu!! U-N-F-A-I-R!!
"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." Sherie Rene Scott

Better question: why is there no similar outpouring of bewilderment over The Seafarer not getting nominated for Best Play?
Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

This many question marks and exclamation points over something so trivial????!!?!?!?!?!?!????!?!!!!!!

The word isn't "losing", I believe the word is "lost".
"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.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I'm still in shock...as long as she gets the Tony nomination it'll hopefully make me a bit happier.. as for right now... im in a serious state of shock.

I love Sierra, saw her in Mermaid and thought she was great! But not as great as Kerry, Kerry is phenominal.

Testing -- I was personally devastated, but I was trying to be sad quietly :~)

(and I apologize, I think we've slightly threadjacked this one, at least I think that's the term)

I have learned to TRY and take these noms lightly--- dont want it to spoil the passion I feel for these shows (and performers)

I REALLY miss "Seafarer" !!

Testing --

I'm right there with you -- every weekend as I'm first waking up, I think I have to hurry to catch the train...

Then I remember I'll never see 'Seafarer' again (at least not with that cast) :~(

And that makes me VERY sad

And I feel the same as you do about the awards --

I was so happy for Conleth Hill (even happier than I'd have been if Jim Norton were nominated), but sad for the play itself. It seems like such a slap to me. And it's hard for something you love so much to be snubbed so

Smaxie --

You shouldn't have gotten us started... ;~)

I love Kerry, don't get me wrong. However, Sierra's just a better performer in general. That girl's voice! Jeez.
"It means nothing to come and sit in a theater night after night and immerse yourself in fantasy, only then to walk out the door and be unchanged in reality. This show will live on in our hearts. But where it truly must survive is in our actions, our compassion and our generousity of spirit towards one another." - Adam Pascal on the closing of RENT

Better than Kerry Butler?! Please, elaborate.

No - Pleae don't elaborate. I've seen both Kerry & Sierra and IMHO I think Kerry was sooo much better. And every time I go to the show (21 times now) I think to myself how amazing she really is... giving it her all 8 times a week. I'm still upset about it.
