You must or you wouldn't continue to address these sort of comments.
You've been on auto pilot just recently? Who would have known?

I have been on Auto Pilot with this board for months now and you bitchy jaded shattered dream queens are just boring me now.
Damn. Get that auto pilot checked soon, love.

"If anyone was robbed, it was Rob McClure who did an AMAZING job in Chapin...he was outstanding."
I agree with you!

Tim Minchin is currently touring in JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, which probably explains why he couldn't attend the performance
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Posted: 6/10/13 at 12:13amTim, is in Sydney Australia doing Jesus Christ Superstar and did a newspaper interview saying he would rather stay and do what his contract asked him to do than rather miss shows.
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

It's called a typo or "brain fart." We all have them. It was fixed. My bad, banal a**holes.

Gee...that might be a Superstar worth seeing!
There is a Minchin concert that's been running on cable and he is mesmerizing!

Found this online:
"THE TONY GOES TO KINKY BOOTS"
In the distance, the muffled shout of a young Matilda is heard...
"That's not right!"

Posted: 6/10/13 at 12:24amRegardless, it is a sham that KINKY BOOTS won more Tonys than PIPPIN. KINKY is a great show and all, but still.

Posted: 6/10/13 at 12:26amMike, this is the same Superstar that showed in London last year and was screened in cinemas, the cast from London are doing an arena tour across Australia.

Posted: 6/10/13 at 12:30amI'm gonna stomp my feet and yell that because the show I liked didn't win an award that impacts my life in absolutely no way whatsoever, that it was robbed and take it as a personal attack on myself!!!

Oh, I see. I believe the cinema screening was cancelled at the last minute, at least here in the U.S. I'm not sure if it was ever rescheduled.

Posted: 6/10/13 at 12:37amThat's right it was too, I now it screened in Australia.

Dear RSC: you have every right to collect every coffer for M. It's a wonderous show.
But don't be surprised if that pisses off American producers and TONY voters.
Everybody say YEAH!

You Said It!!! Broadway Producers especially the Neaderlanders were put tons of money into trying to get RSC to let them produce Matilda without letting them know they already choose The Dodgers, and how do these producers get their revenge... TONY AWARDS!!

Well, as per Jordan's post, there are a lot of things worse than the wrong show winning the Tony, but it's probably not that shocking that the American show with the feel-good message edged out the dark, sophisticated British import. Matilda was an A, Kinky was a B+...and I liked Pippin more than either one of them.
Glad at least that they went with Tracy Letts over Tom Hanks, and Patina over Laura, even though she made a lovely Cinderella

Sigh. Is it always "or"? Is it never "and"?
Here's to a great season on Broadway.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Matilda was an A in your opinion.
Kinky Boots was a B+ in your opinion.
I'm so tired of everyone who posts this shlt like they're writing facts that everyone should just know. IN MY OPINION Matilda was a C- and Kinky Boots was an A.
