Now that she's got room in her bag from losing the 2 Tony Awards she apparently had in there, already?

She's going to keep a small thing of tissues for CZJ's sniffles.

And a detailed map of CZJ's Tony performance head twitches?

Probably a few weapons in case she runs into Scarlett on the street.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

It has Raul's Tony for Company, so it's not completely empty.

well, she's not going to be putting an Astaire award in there anytime soon (at least not for Follies). But hopefully she'll be a frontrunner THIS season for Best Leading Actress in a Musical...though we'll have to see how Audra is...

This reminds me of all the catty talk about how Meryl must feel at only having two very old oscars. Frankly, I would hope that artists of Jan's and Meryl's stature are not all that upset about award losses.

Henrik, this thread is a joke on another thread with a rather unfortunate syntactically-incorrect title. It became a running joke last year. See link.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

ah, thanks AC, though I hope I didn't come off too prudish in any case. I thought it was a fun thread even without knowing the precedent.

I don't think you did, at all. I doubt Jan spends as much (if any) time brooding over her Tony losses as the denizens of BWW do.

I thought that Jan Maxwell was going to do everything in her power to ensure that Bernadette Peters got another Tony, including having her billing adjusted.

She did let them change the color of her box.

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

On a side note: I love Jan Maxwell. She is one of the most gracious people working in the theatre. Anyone who has seen her at the stage door can back me up. What a wonderful woman.

I think she's too skinny, My Aunt Pepe would put a sandwich in her bag to fatten her up so she can find a man.
