Loved the OOTI performance and I'm happy they won Best Revival! I missed that one on my trip, so I'm hoping they'll tour. We'll see.

Dude it's 2018 and gay marriage is legal in the United States of America. If you are honestly suggesting that all public references of that reality should be scrubbed from awareness so as to not "deeply offend" your religious values, and even at a THEATER awards show at that... well, I'm not sure what to say to you.

This thread was so positive and now it's become sort of a dumpster fire. Let's get back on track.

Ok whoever is grading the performances? Bruce gets an F.

Are we really asking a theatre award show to be less gay?

Was that an excerpt from his show? That’s all I could gather

I'm baffled that anyone could give Bruce anything but a A+.  It was intimate, poignant, real, and moving.

"If people are paying hundreds of dollars to see this boring nonsense I feel bad for them. Get him off the stage already."

ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLL.  Yeah, that is why it extended almost a year past it's original closing date.  You're a moron.  Get out of here and never comment on a show you haven't seen and know NOTHING about.

Tony Shalhoub won best leading actor. He deserves it (although I was rooting for Ethan)

He has always sold tickets this isn't new. He has also never been able to sing, which is also nothing new.

Can we ask why people hate My Fair Lady? The applause it's been receiving all night has been ho-hum in comparison to the other nominees. I think there's some inside community dislike of this production and for Lincoln Center going on . Even Carousel is receiving louder ovations.

It's horsesh!t that Ethan didn't win.

The Tony Awards are political nonsense.  We need new VOTERS who aren't bitchy old queens trying to make a point.

Yes. And I'm not a Bruce fan (not NOT a fan, just somewhat indifferent.)

As to this:

Ok whoever is grading the performances? Bruce gets an F.

Really? Why?

Tony gave such a beautifully understated performance. Very happy about this. 

[Robbie2]

Posted: 6/10/18 at 10:55pm

YES TONY!!! Katrina will WIN next and Band's Visit will get 10 TONYS!!!!

Ethan (((((((((((( Happy for Tony! Although when I saw him, nothing he did made me remember him after.

It might not be any of those things, but it still needs to be said as frequently and loudly as possible. F*CK TRUMP AND F*CK HIS GARBAGE SUPPORTERS."

I agree with the sentiment but don’t really get the purpose of doing this here. Guessing the majority of the crowd also dislikes trump so it’s not exactly a controversial take. I would have rather him shouted for people to vote in November.

I knew Ethan wouldn't win and I have absolutely no idea why anyone ever thought he would. 

I didn't even see Shalhoub in the role when I saw TBV, but I knew whoever played that character would win because it's such an amazing part whoever plays it.
