I haven't seen War Paint yet. Is this number a good representation of it?

(1) I guess all the DEH haters out there can revel in the Director of a Musical
(2) I hope this doesnt signal a LA LA Land situation where DEH takes awards but misses out on the Best Musical because they want to throw a bone to CFA. I liked both, but CFA didnt match DEH for substance.
Cover the Tony with sugar and give it to CFA? UGH

Ridiculous...how would the voters know what the result were when placing thier vote for this category.

Very much. It is one of the most boring shows I have sat through in years.

Patti and Christine, best of the night so far!

War Paint number was precious. I know what I'm else watching in a loop tomorrow. Despite the universal diss, I actually really like "Penny In My Pocket" as well, so there's that for me. Let's see what The Great Comet does now.

This was my biggest problem with the show.
Her accent is maybe just a little too good.

I respect your opinion and completely disagree.

Uhh, the major award of the night would hardly be throwing a bone. I hate groupies. At least not as bad as ReNtheadz

You'd think CFA was Sound of Music. It's hardly sugary.

That WAR PAINT number didn't nothing.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

War Paint, yawn, couldn't understand Patti, plus she always seems to play the same kinda character.
Namo i love u but we get it already....you don't like Madonna

So far, really meh on the CFA and War Paint performances.

That was the most unfocused version of "Waving Through a Window" I have ever seen Platt do. It looked like he was struggling making the cuts and staging changes work. Still, it's a great performer doing a great song.

Christopher Ashley's direction win is a joke. Really?
Patti & Christine just delivered the best performance of the night. It was well staged and shot. Platt was great, but I didn't love how it was shot.

I'm still bugged that Midler didn't perform and instead we had this bland song with DHP who had less charisma than the actors from this ****ty new show Salvation...............

I've been thinking the same thing! Although another possible parallel would be a Best Director/Best Musical split . . .

Anyone who thinks like this shouldn't vote. It's utterly disrespectful to directors who put their heart and soul and months of hard work into their projects.

I cannot believe that any legitimate Tony voters vote like this.
