I do feel like the shows are making incredibly poor song choices so far. The bit with Matthew Morrison was funny though

Matt Morrison and Will Smith's reactions were better than the actual performance.

So I don't understand how you would explain CZJ's loss? (if she loses).

Enjoyed La Cage. Hodge is a trip but his singing is a little subpar...maybe it's supposed to be for the character?? Don't know much about the show, but (unlike FELA) this performance would move to possibly see it.

something about the whole number just felt off. The enthusiam and ebullience that causes Albin to remove his wig was so lacking. It was like take wig off in 3...2...1...

I agree there was something a little awkward about it....but it's just taking it out of context I guess?

Eddie Redmayne has been on-screen with the likes of Matt Damon and Angelina Jolie, but you would not hear the same "welcome to the club" being said about him. Sure he is not a "star" but this could certainly get him roles in Hollywood.

Most performances are a little off when seen in this content and not part of the show, they have to get as many of the cast on as they can even when they aint in the number in the show etc. I thought Hodge was brilliant, yes his voice is not the best but his performance is brilliant, i thought the number was fun
Namo i love u but we get it already....you don't like Madonna

There's something off about the entire show, Hodge's performance being front and center. Like PJ said, it actually was very moving at one time.

First of all, regarding LA CAGE, it was difficult to do this number in context out of context. When Grammer introduced the scene, the words didn't hit. And the ending of taking off the wig therefore made no sense.
Secondly, it didn't help at all that the camera angles worked against them. The camera shots didn't exactly capture it best (as best as a live experience can be captured on film).

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Well, I got excited last year for most shows, so these performaces are supposed to do something positive for them.

Maybe the performances seem a little off because their usual venue is not as big as RCMH- I mean that place is HUGE!

Well that win for La Cage definitely does not look good juxtaposed moments after the number.
