Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:57pmMargo, someone, please...what is the story? b/c right now I'm assuming sharpton shows up on stage every night or something. is there a joke about him!?

I think they are, Margo.
I am majorly confused now since I have never seen it. I know Sharpton is not in the show, but I don't understand if they added a part or if he substituted for someone?
I thought it was funny.... but I think it made things confusing.

Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:58pmHa, I loved it. The third "use it in a sentence" part was hilarious.

Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:59pmEach show, audience members are chosen to spell. For the Tonys they thought it would be funny to use Al...that is it.
#558re: The 2005 Tony Awards Thread
Posted: 6/5/05 at 9:59pmIn the actual show 2 audience members are brought on stage as spellers. For the Tonys they chose Sharpton (who did very well I must say)

No, Al Sharpton is not in the show.
He's the substitute for audience participation.
That's usually sung to one of the audience members.

She's so pretty. :)
GAH. Must...restrain putting hair behind ears...>____________<
It's a pet peeve, but I do it all the time too, so I guess I'm a hypocrite.
ETA: By doing it all the time, I meant putting my hair sort of in my face. Okay, my thread jack is finite.
