THE OFFICIAL 2017 TONY AWARDS VIEWING THREAD — Page 9

I don't think Kevin Kline is a fan of award shows. I know he hates doing press. (and frankly I thought Present Laughter was god awful.)

Andy Karl is adorable, but this number isn't going to help sell tickets.

I loved The Groundhog Day number, it was so simply done and Andy broke my heart.

Orchestrations - DEH.

I think they meant "Bette Midler, (comma) and the cast of Hello, Dolly!." But my heart is still hoping for the best.

Roobbie - pretty sure they meant Bette is presenting and DHP is performing. I'd be surprised (very happily so) if Bette performs, obviously. They have stopped cutting to her (in the audience) even when Kevin made a joke about her so I wonder what's up with that.

ORCHESTRATIONS?! Oh, come on!

Wait what? Malloy lost score, book, AND orchestrations? What the actual f...!

I was more impressed with Andy Karl than Ben Platt. Love how emotional he was

None of the GHD songs by themselves are good for selling the show. Sadly.

So like...deh sweeping?

Penny in My Pocket it is... Ugh...

Fingers and toes crossed. I would cry.
