Going back to the earlier Matilda performance, I noticed Oona's bit at the start is in a much higher key than how it's usually sung in the show.. does anyone know why they'd do that?

'Thanks Mike Bloomberg for turning Times Square into a theme park, and putting a Duane Reade on every corner in NYC. Broadway's biggest fan! Woo! '

Um that was Rudy Giuliani


MMm that Matilda book writer is cute!

How f**king stupid do you have to be to not go to the microphone that the presenters just announced your win at?

Considering your mental state in the moment and the mammoth size of that stage and theatre, and a microphone set up right where you walk up to the stage, I'd say it's a pretty easy mistake. There should have been a better effort at ushering them to the correct microphone. I'd probably be so amped up on adrenaline, endorphind, booze, caffeine and Xanax, I'd walk into a camera, trip on the steps, go to the wrong microphone, drop an f-bomb, forget my speech and walk off left instead of right.

Jesus, they're just PEOPLE. It happens.

Well they could have just turned on that mic sooner!

BL5965, so they can transition to "Revolting Children" in the medley.

It's really nice to see the Tonys spreading the love this year! Doesn't happen very often. Also, I'm shocked PIPPIN hasn't won more awards so far. I thought for sure it would take a few of the awards KINKY BOOTS did. This is gonna be a nail-biter right up until Best Musical is announced.

LIP SYNC

God they screw it up even when it's two people on stage.

I like the production values here

They have to stand for Hal. He's like the Godfather.

Anyone else think it looks like the Phantom is lip-synching?

[JayKurnitz]

Posted: 6/9/13 at 10:12pm

Oh, you've got to be kidding me. Hal Prince just introduced the longest running show in Broadway history and then they get up there and lip sync? What a joke.

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 6/9/13 at 10:12pm

Oh, dear. I'm not digging this Phantom at all. Sounds like he's on helium. Love her, but it's like a lesbian duet.

[TheatreFan4]

Posted: 6/9/13 at 10:12pm

Lip Syncing is what Phantom does. Like 40% of the show is lip syncing.
