Very excited to see Gentleman's Guide next month. A director I work with is putting a group together when one of her former students is filling in for a larger role. That performance was sensational.

Inglehart was great in Friend Like Me. Strange how no one is complaining about his costar sweating onstage nor any of the tappers who also started to sweat near the end. Nope, just the larger actor gets mocked and criticized for that.

Inglehart sang it live. Good to hear that, and good for him.

I don't think the Aladdin number sold any tickets either. I thought it was awful and couldn't wait for it to end.

I'm also bitter that Iglehart won a Featured Actor Tony for a leading performance, when poor Bertie Carvel still has no Tony cos he was put in Lead for what was also a Featured performance

The camerawork for Gentleman's Guide ruined the joke of needing to see all three characters at once.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain. -Kad

I agree about Cabaret. It had more energy at Studio.

Laura Benanti just tweeted "Turning off the Tonys. Good night"

?

She's just pissed that her friend Celia didn't win. No biggie.

Angela Lansbury is puce with rage and resentment, I don't think.

Congrats, Audra.

"I agree about Cabaret. It had more energy at Studio."

Definitely. It just works better in the show, and looks super weird on a big stage. And the music was sped up way too much. Oh well, there are plenty of good "Willkommen" performances out there, including their performance on the Tonight Show a couple months ago, which was miles better than this.

Audra is such a class ACT! The reaction to her winning gave me chills! Congrats to her! And to JRB for his two Bridges awards! That made me so happy!

Idina Menzel's performance was so great, it doesn't sound lip-synced to me. If/then is underrated.

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Alix, also, they cut out the entire middle section when he introduces each member of the band. That's where the fun is. The number was cut to pieces.

I actually just purchased a ticket for GG! I'm still not entirely sure whether or not i'll like it, but that was a good performance, and my friend's father is one of the producers so might as welll!

Not suprised that Cranston won. He was fantastic. Cabaret was better on the Tonight Show.
