That's way too far away.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 2:07amJust saw the show last week. I thought it was wonderful and will be a strong contender for the Best Musical Tony.
re: The Official 'In The Heights' Love Thread....#127
Posted: 4/2/08 at 9:02amDo you guys think that any of the female role will be nominated for Tony's? The catagory is very crowded this time around...

"Oh please, Over at 'Gypsy' Patti LuPone hasn't even alienated her first daughter yet!" Mary Testa in "Xanadu" "...Like a drunk Chita Rivera!" Robin de Jesus in "In the Heights"
"B*tch, I don't know your life." -Xanadu After that if he still doesn't understand why you were uncomfortable and are now infuriated, kick him again but this time with Jazz Hands!!! -KillerTofu

Posted: 4/2/08 at 12:06pmFor sure, hopefully, Olga for "Abuela Claudia"
re: The Official 'In The Heights' Love Thread....#129
Posted: 4/2/08 at 12:22pmI would be shocked if Merediz is not nominated !
re: The Official 'In The Heights' Love Thread....#130
Posted: 4/2/08 at 12:33pmYeah I just hope that this show sweeps the Tonys lol. I haven't even seen it yet and I already feel like singing it's praises!

Posted: 4/2/08 at 12:54pmI love Andrea Burns too, but that might be a long shot.
re: The Official 'In The Heights' Love Thread....#133
Posted: 4/2/08 at 1:02pmAhh I wish, but you're probably right. If her role was a bit larger, she might have a better shot.

Thought I'd post this here:
I have it on very good authority that sometime during this week, or possibly the next, they're going to change the song "Sunrise". The portion that opens that song, in which Nina is teaching Benny to speak Spanish, is a Puerto Rican lullaby, written by a schoolteacher in Vega Alta:
pollito, chicken
gallina, hen,
lápiz, pencil
y pluma, pen
etc.
Apparently, there have been some copyright related issues that were not resolved, so they're going to have to drop that from the show.It was still in the show on Tuesday.
This breaks my heart, because when I heard this song, which I used to sing as a little girl, I literally squealed with delight.
Last I heard, negotiations had fallen through, but I'm still hoping they find a way to keep it in the show. If anyone sees the show before Saturday, please let us know if that portion's still in, or if it was cut. I was hoping my parents would get to hear it.

Posted: 4/3/08 at 4:47pmI really like that part too. Hopefully it will be resolved. Kinda odd that it made it this far..wonder about the recording.
re: The Official 'In The Heights' Love Thread....#149
Posted: 4/3/08 at 4:49pmYeah, it struck me as odd, too, since the show was already opened. I have no reason to doubt my source, though, so it's legit. I have no idea what they did with the recording for the cd. I'll try to get some more info.
