I like how the plays are being introduced and the scene of the play set...

It's sad that the only two who can benefit from this depiction is August and 39 Steps since all the others have closed


but I do enjoy it, I actually thought about how it'd be nice to do for plays since musicals get advertise through performance. Updated On: 6/15/08 at 09:41 PM

What is wrong with Faith? She did not sound good.

I will PayPal $5 to the first person who uploads Patti's performance to YouKnowWhere. I must see it.

that's soo funny orangeskitlles.

I can't believe that i will say this... I am getting BORED! too many uncessary musical numbers! specially i have seen all the shows...and to be honest..most of it are so out of context! what happened to good script writting? some of the jokes are (yawn) LAME!



Can someone wake me up when they are announcing the Best new Musical?

I love that they are showing some scenes from the plays but why can't they be live?? I can still remember the scene from the 1987 Tonys from "Coastal Disturbances" with Timothy Daly (of Wings t.v. show fame) and Annette Bening, him burying her in the sand...

I love the play montage, but I wish they had a little more time for each play.

"39 Steps" looks fantastic! I so hope it tours so I can see it!

I love this segment on plays, amazing showcase of some amazing work.

I do wish that they had finished Deanna's monolouge but I'm know they had to cut the F word

Man, is Gabriel Byrne dead or something?

Looks like he ate some bad clams

Anna! Congrats to her! I am so happy!

What's with the long face, Gabriel? You'd think he was giving a eulogy.

[wonderfulwizard11]

Posted: 6/15/08 at 9:44pm

Not a surprise.

Congrats to Ms. Shapiro.

I really enjoyed that segment on the Best Play nominees. Very well executed.

39 steps should never tour the major venues - it would sink in the huge barns of theatres they build for touring Broadway shows.

Posted: 6/15/08 at 9:45pm

yes shh282, you need to go asap (seriously cast changes on Wednesday)

[buddharich]

Posted: 6/15/08 at 9:46pm

a rare female director winner - Julie Taymor, Susan Stroman, Garry Hynes - any others?? August: Osage County is sweeping tonight!

I have a stupid question, if this show is live (which I am thinking it is) are all the shows dark tonight? I feel really stupid asking...

I think you guys are being so harsh on the Tonys this year, from musical numbers to the layout. Whoopi is doing an amazing job as a host, they are having beautiful presentations of plays and musicals. This years Tony awards is actually entertaining to watch, unlike all other award showsl

Love Anna's speech. It's touching and funny.
