Spring Awakening will be doing Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind.I'm thinking they will bring up Lauren's Relly award...

Spring Awakening should do the little ditty they did at the Drama Desk...I mean Lauren did win a Relly for gogo dancing...so atleast the reprise of mamma... could show off some dancing.

Playbill has an article up with the list.

I'm looking forward to seeing Christine and Erin perform "Peas in a Pod" -- of course it's not the strongest song in the show by any means, but it'll work well for Regis & Kelly and that audience. Plus, it'll be nice to see Erin get some deserved attention!

Does anyone know if, liek the View they save the performances for the last 15 mins of the show or so? Or do I have to try to sneaky outa my first course and see the full things?

Any time I've seen the show, music bits are at the end.

Last year the performances were near the end of the show.

It varies, but they generally save it for the last segment/tag. The first half hour is dominated by the host chat/trivia and the first guest segment, so the shows definitely won't be on until after 9:30.

I'll be trying for standby on Thursday. NPH and Grey Gardens? Sounds like an awesome morning to me, even if I don't get a ticket.

Noticed the June 5, performance will be Curtains -- just in time for the CD release. Coincidence, I think not.

I think the big question is -- Who draws more viewers: The Tonys or Regis?

What an amazing performance from Fantasia. I have to admit I didn't like her voice on American Idol, but her voice is so much stronger now. I wish I was in New York so I could see her performance on stage.

Well, thank goodness that Raul from Company is performing. Finally the show decides to start doing some advertising.

Glad you enjoyed the performance - but this was just a little of what Fantasia does with that song every night on Broadway. Her version is even more spectacular in the show. Its too bad you cant see it.
