all that jazz said: "indytallguy said: "all that jazz said: "Lin Manuel of course deserved his award, but John Doyle definitely deserved best director... I really hope the trend doesn't keep up."
Hamilton is going to win a lot of awards.
"Of course it's going to win awards, I was just hoping it the Tonys wouldn't be as unjustly and unfoundedly disproportionate as the ridiculous amount of attention they received this season.
"
Unjustly and unfoundedly? Really?

"Yes really!! I never understood the hype of Hamilton, specially in a season with so many amazing productions like Shuffle Along and The Color Purple.

The direction in Hamilton is far superior and was well deserved. Lin is amazing, and he deserves all the acclaim and love tonight. It's his night.

Oh the choreography is amazing. I understand why they chose it, just that it is Sunrise Sunset...

Not loving Bright Star. Such a shame because it was 1 show I wasn't sure if I wanted to see it. This performance is not winning it any points.

I knew nothing of Bright Star and I really like this song. Going to have to check and see if they have a cast recording.

Carmen is a dream. I truly wish she could win.

Carmen Cusack is brilliant as always. Really rooting for her and the show.

Nice to see Carmen showcased but I don't think that was the number Bright Star needed to boost things.
I like a good rhyme more than a good time

It's great. That's the opening song and I wasn't sure when I heard it but the show is great

I was looking forward to the performance, but wont be getting a ticket based on this. Not bad, just not motivsting me.

That was beautiful from BRIGHT STAR. Hopefully that'll keep the show open & boost sales!

Great song choice by Bright Star -- watching with the parents, who aren't huge Broadway buffs but now want to know her story. (And love Steve Martin, so, there's that.)

I think that song is gorgeous and she kills it. I really wish she had a chance to win because to me she gave such an incredible performance, but it's a tough category and she's in the underdog show.
I'll def. go back and check it out again.

I KNOW! I just cringed. The song from every Jewish wedding in the 70's & 80"s. Th choreography was... interesting . Hip hop meets frum.
