Just from meeting Norbert at the stage door, he seems to be kind of reserved when he's not acting

I haven't seen Spamalot, but that "somebody swallowed it?" joke was horrendous. If all the jokes in the show of that caliber, I'll cry if it wins Best Musical.

And Sara Ramirez is doing a good job, especially since she's sick.

Good song choice for Spamalot, featuring Sara is the way to go

Ohk, Sara's so much better than her understudy.
I can see why people love her.

I know Bill Irwin is not that HOT name on any of the threads, but I am so glad. As Broadwaydannyc said, he is the greatest clown and vaudevillian alive. I love his work. I thought O'Byrne would win, but I am so glad Bill won

Azaria's cracking me up.

Yeah... Sara's doing a good job.

Cool performance.

I hope you enjoy it Scoundrel! I'm going to try for the lottery on Tuesday to give Norbert some post Tony support (That would be my 6th time, if the lottery gods are with me)

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:25pm

i wasnt into that performance at all...

[HeyMrMusic]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:25pm

Yeah, liar, all the jokes are pretty much like that.

Ohk, Sara's a really good performer.
She was singing like that even when sick?
Wow. Heh.

That slow-motion thing did NOT work at all on TV.

i must say that was preety good...made me wanna see it

[WesternSky2]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:25pm

I don't know what to think of Spamalot. I need too see it for myself. DHP Is enough motivation, though. And Sarah sounded incredible...I can't believe she's sick.

Sorry to be "that person," but other than Ramirez that performance was pretty run-of-the-mill. The choreography was more simplistic than most high school productions and the harmonies were nothing special. I'm not going to judge the show as a whole based on that one performance, but that was pretty boring.

[Matt_G]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:26pm

It WAS boring.

[thirdrowcenter]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:27pm

I had the best time at Spamalot.

[HeyMrMusic]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:27pm

Only four awards left!

Gah, please, more Piazza!

I was very disappointed with Spamalot, but I had to see it for myself, I would never have believed anyone who told me it wasn't very good

[Marquise]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:27pm

That was hilarious. I can see why Sara walked away with her Tony. Her joke-like riffing on the song was on the money. It lookslike a funny show. I would definitely give it a shot.

[Dirty Rotten Scoundrel]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:27pm

yeah in my opinion it pretty much sucked lmao. hm sara was sick, that does give me respect for her though. but i found the performance boring.

[musicnmath]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:28pm

So far...these performances make me want to see Piazza and Bee. I've seen DRS and Charity (in Boston). Spamalot, I think I'll pass on...

[bwayballerina]

Posted: 6/5/05 at 10:28pm

Spamalot was ok. Sara was good... but that's about it. The choreography was very... I don't know, it seemed like they should be dancing to a completely different kind of song. I was a little disappointed that Tim Curry sort of just sung-spoke his stuff...

Why my parents loved this show, I'll never know. I guess to someone who never sees theatre, it's pretty good, but it fails to excite me.
