The voters have their heads too far up their rectums and it's all politics. It's rarely the best of a season that gets recognized. Spongebob is getting snubbed because the Tony Voters are too pretentious for it.
There need to be more voters under the age of 60 who actually reflect the diversity of Broadway and who actually reflect Broadway audiences.
I'm happy that the Drama Desk awards rewarded Spongebob, a awards show that actually reflects the community.
Hi there. Broadway audience member very, very under the age of 60 here. I loved TBV with all my heart and thought Spongebob was fun but a bit of a mess. Do I not count as “the community” now? Maybe don’t generalize.

Not a great season but there is talent up there. TBV and MFL are very good shows. Sometimes we have bad seasons and sometimes Great seasons like last year.

LMAO. The Band's Visit is now not the artistic choice? Talk about trying to force a narrative.

That performance of "Seasons of Love" from Parkland High School was such a beautiful moment.

They aren't going to reward tv garbage. How hard is that for you to understand?

Calm down, I'm not saying that as a dig against Band Visit. Someone was saying that it looked like Spongebob was being snubbed all around and this was my answer.
Yes, ABV deserves best musical. No one has ever argued that.

I'm just going to say it...this Frozen performance is already better than Mean Girls and Carousel's performances.

Calm down, buck-o.
My opinion doesn't have to be yours.

Posted: 6/10/18 at 9:32pmI’m sorry but Patti Murin looks way too old to be playing Anna. I’ve never seen her perform as her before and it truly looks weird and wrong.

I, personally, am so incredibly happy for his win. I thought his performance was just a revelation. He made lots of bold choices and portrayed Cohn not as a monster, but as a truly complex figure. There wasn't a moment he was onstage that I wasn't riveted.

You know Harry Potter will win best play. They do not have heads up their bums. And tbv was ineligible for dd because it was up last year.
The Lion King won best musical and that means its not all about high art.

I'm forcing my family to watch (as usual), and my mom has become a Frozen fan just because of that performance. It was much better than I expected it to be!
