jacobsnchz14, I'd tried many times and there is nothing there. Great, humble speech Cyndi. I will give you that.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:10pmThough it wouldn't have been my choice, I'm thrilled for Lauper. I still think she's an amazing woman.

I though the opening was simply spectacular, Neil and the whole company were amazing, but the music itself was not very impressive.
Cinderella was perfectly charming, except for the part where she almost tripped.
I felt really bad for the rock of ages guys, that was painful to watch.
And I liked Mowtown. It could've been stronger vocally, but it was very well done and the dancing was great.
Cindy!!!! So gorgeous!

Sorry Annie company, CBS's audio team can't be trusted. Umm not sure why they're doing close-ups in a production number!

Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:12pmJane is surprising me! She sounds really good.
#289The Official TONY Awards Thread
Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:12pmI actually like Annie too. It would be 2nd so far for me in terms of quality and interest to see.

Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:13pmYesssss Jane! She actually sounds better than Katie vocally. Wasn't expecting that.
#293The Official TONY Awards Thread
Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:13pmVery smart to use Jane and I agree, she sounds great.

Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:14pmI now see why "Annie" was not nominated for Best Actress.

Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:14pmSmart move to use Jane and she sounds great.
#298The Official TONY Awards Thread
Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:14pmJane Lynch would be great if she were in a better production of ANNIE. She has the right idea.
#299The Official TONY Awards Thread
Posted: 6/9/13 at 9:14pmWow, Jane is great and hilarious! Might have to give "Annie" a visit when I next visit after all. . . .
