I would have chosen "A Little Priest" to sing ...

Is the Sweeney Todd sung live? Really an incredible performance, although it may not have a wide appeal.

That “Sweeney” was my favorite so far. Perfect.

I was hoping for "A LIttle Priest," but I did love seeing the ensemble.

I do kind of feel bad for the teacher whose moment is going to be MASSIVELY overshadowed by that ad-lib

They're about 5-6 mninutes behind schedule. not bad despite not having a script.

Odd to not include Annaleigh

Musically stunning, but that southern accent is scary.

Why did they do that again? their entire launch campaign was a video of them performing that number

It was positioned well in the telecast. Lea must be the 11 O’Clock number.

"

yup

For real. I can't believe she's stuck with that accent for so long!

They figured with the writer's strike they'd follow the trend of leaving out any canned bits.

Yeah, quite inappropriate of Denee to make someone else's special moment all about herself. She owes an apology to that educator who had a look of shock and stun and when the camera panned to him.

Really enjoyed that Sweeney!

[HeyMrMusic]

These last few performances show that one well-executed number (as opposed to a medley) is very effective. I thought it was bold to do "The Ballad of Sweeney Todd," but that really made me intrigued. As someone who hasn't seen the show yet, it's now at the top of my list.

·        Writers make the world go round and I stand with the WGA 100% but…… this show is a delight without the usual dialogue and joke attempts. Hate to say it.

 

·        TOPDOG. YES. Was certainly one of the best theater experiences of the year, bar none.

 

·        And here I am reminded how friggin perfect Sara Bareilles was in this role. And props to shouting out the ongoing tour, something we don’t normally see but makes a whole of economic sense.

 

·        Are both of the musical actor tonys going to people wearing dresses? Asking for a Fox News producer working on tomorrow night’s propaganda.

 

·         I liked that Parade fully staged this number, even though weve seen them perform it a few times, that little opening helps it greatly. But I cant fathom why they wouldnt feature the full ensemble, or do a snippet of one of Grayson's big awesome catchy numbers. Ben and Micaela sound incredible as ever dont get me wrong.

 

·        Kinda disappointed theyre front-loading all the revival performances… but yes, this Sweeney performance makes me raise some eyebrows at those who complained about this show. (I haven’t seen it yet). Loved the big ensemble and the orchestra and it just looks good. This staging is great. Ironic given the sound complaints re this show that the first words from Groban got swallowed (and ballsy not to showcase Annaleigh at all but I guess if youre sold out for the next 3 months ) I loved all of this.

All signs point to LaChanze taking home two more Tony Awards tonight, good for her!

Florida is gross and their Governor hates everyone that isn't straight, white and male. That joke killed and was a real EFF YOU. Sorry not sorry.

They always do. It's so they can award Best Revival of a Musical and still have some Best Musical nominees perform afterwards and before the final award of the night.

A Beautiful Noise wasn’t my favorite show but they picked a great number for this. And Will sings it perfectly.

Okay now I see what people are talking about with the Sweeney Todd choreography. Whyyyyyyyyy?

Lin Manuel Miranda is a good face for Broadway. Always so engaged and enthusiastic.
