Great to hear it was an amazing show! Karen sounded a little under the weather or something on GMA. That is a tough part to sing! If Sh K Boom already shipped I'm canceling my order and getting that!

Just called Marquee Merchandise where I ordered it from and they said it will be shipped before it's in theater. They ship it to the theater and the theater ships it to the people who placed a pre order on the blue slips at the theater so I will get it before the people who got it from the theater!

I was lucky enough to win the lottery and witness a very special night last evening. Emotions were running high and there were very special onstage moments between characters/cast members that clearly reflected the elation of nomination day. A supercharged first act (even Karen's voice, though waning, still resonated) gave way to something unique, at least from my vantage point in the first row. I can only assume that something happened backstage (group hug, speech, perhaps well wishes, etc.) as the second act was full of emotion. Most actors at one point seemed choked up/teary, even during up tempo numbers. This all lead up to the show's climax, and the expression on LIn-Manuel's face, the gravity of the moment, was astonishing, moving and joyous. I am choked up even writing this. Truly an incredible evening. I wish this talented, passionate and most deserving company every success that is coming their way. Alabanza In The Heights!

Since they're selling the cast recording for $16.99, does anyone know if they will still charge $35 to those who pre-ordered?

I've seen the show three times and can't wait to see it again! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! I've never seen a show with so much power.

I really want to get that program the next time I'm in the city.

On a random note, I watched Camp for the first time in a long time in honor of Robin's nomination! I almost forgot how great his preformance is in this movie
