Fellow Tonyians. You know Hugh. Priceless!

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

No, that's not the costume for "Defying Gravity"

Folks, this is that that was: throwing Chenoweth a bone. She didn't have much to do in the WICKED number slated for presentation, and her talent is much loved in the Broadway community, so they put that little bit in there as (1) comic relief and (2) to give this other WICKED girl a moment to shine. I thought it was fine, and mildly entertaining -- but let's call a spade a spade.

rlb - I agree completely.

"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Well, I missed that part. What happened?? BTW, Cheno was just as poor as Idina in the "Wicked" number...

Forgot, or edited for time. The whole song was chopped to pieces.

Think about it.

The number had to be trimmed to fit into the allotted time. I doubt she "forgot" lines, I suspect they were just cut.

Yes, the song was edited as was dialogue changed and edited, to fit into the 3 and a half minutes the show was givn and to help get a bit more of a feeling for the storyline.

I almost died when Hugh said, "I hate to blow her off like that."

"I'm learning to dig deep down inside and find the truth within myself and put that out. I think what we identify with in popular music more than anything else is when someone just shares a truth that we can relate to. That's what I'm searching for in my music." - Ron Bohmer

It blows that they had to chop Wicked to pieces and Hugh got more than 5 minutes to prance around. What a crock!

You could consider the bubble extra time for Wicked, so spare me your righteous outrage. Jackman only got about an extra minute- would you have preferred to split that time and give each performance an extra 8 seconds or so? Besides, it certainly isn't Jackman's fault that Wicked's number didn't work. They should have chosen something better.

And if the Tony producers were going to take time away from Jackman, I'd prefer that they give it to Big River rather than indulge a show like Wicked that barely needs it.

I thought the bubble thing was really stupid and as rlgbc said just a way to indulge princess chenoweth.

you think you know but you have no idea.....

Don't you know by now...
The bubble is just a way to protect Diva Cheno's fragile voice.
