Sam Gold - thrilled but surprised. I thought this might be the one award they didn't win...

I don't remember "The Night They Invented Champagne" being so fast. Vanessa Hudgens was like a blur on that stage.

Gigi's performance was enjoyable.

YAY SAM GOLD!

Well done, Gigi!!  That's the energy that OTT needed.  Hopefully this number will give Gigi a boost at the box office.....

after the the first few awards, I think it will be a Fun Home kind of night!

Ugh. That was more like "The Night They Invented Crystal Meth."

I am so happy Christian won. I loved the Something Rotten number.

GIGI didn't impress me - OTT did. To each his/her own.

Director switching Cameras & Perspectives for video of On The Town

They switched cameras and perspectives too quickly for me.  I think the model for photographing musicals for TV should be the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movies, not MTV.  When people are dancing, its better if we can see their full figure, feet to head.

The video selected to show us for GiGi was better.

GIGI's manic performance felt like they all took those pep pills from the Bye Bye Birdie movie before doing the number. Lordie, was that sped up.

"I don't remember "The Night They Invented Champagne" being so fast. Vanessa Hudgens was like a blur on that stage."

She was rushing...and by the end of her solo, she was ahead of the music.

To each his or her own: I really disliked the Gigi number. Love its simplicity in the movie but felt this was ridiculously overdone.

JCM got his award off screen? Omg. This is breaking my heart.

Not the same love for The King and I as there was for South Pacific.

I heard there were "creative additions" for this Fun Home performance. If you've seen the show what are your thoughts?

[morosco]

Posted: 6/7/15 at 9:10pm

Fun home..."first all female writing team"?  What about Secret Garden's Lucy Simon (score) and Marsha Norman (book and lyrics)?

Still not sure if that was the right number to sell FUN HOME, but Lucas did a lovely job.

Way to undermine everything that just happened by having Kristin show up dressed as E.T.
