I am not a fan of Cinderella...but that DID look enticing.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Best performance so far: Cinderella, hands down. Those quick changes onstage were great!

And I'm disappointed Terrence didn't win, though I figured he wouldn't.

The Cinderella medley was magical.
It showed why they won best costumes.
Victoria Clark is enchanting.
Laura should win best actress.
All in all, that should sell tickets.

What's the conventional wisdom on which show will win for best musical revival?

And the transformations are actually MUCH smoother at the actual show. They come out of nowhere.

Cinderella did an AMAZING job. How on earth does that dress transformation happen? They totally won me over, and now I will see it.

It wa a little strange seeing Laura's first costume, the ragged clothing, with short sleves, but I think they designed it that way so it would be easier for to change into her ballgown.

There have been some disastrous medleys in the past. Kudos to MATILDA and CINDERELLA.

The quick changes for CINDERELLA were really awkward but the rest of it was magical. Laura is so beautiful.

Saw the show and found it incredible and this performance the same way!

If anything, these awards mean that Pippin is not sweeping. It has yet to win an award, and it had very good odds of winning Featured Actor, Sound Design, and even a longshot at Costume Design if they loved the show that much.

That performance was excellent. Made me want to see the show.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Seriously Bway Joe? Did you miss the dead air before the Rock of Ages guys came out? I thought they were going to break!


As big a critic as I have been of Cinderella, I would LOVE to see that television. And yes I could listen to a Richard Rodgers waltz anytime,, but doesn't make sense when you're losing a TV audience.

They're trying to give it that "bootleg" feel.

That Cinderella performance was a big win. Truly magical. I'm really crossing my fingers for Laura later on, and Santino? Just dreamy.

For those who have not yet seen 'Cinderella' I would reccomend it for sure. I saw last month and it was wonderful from beginning to end.

stupid jokes... making Mike Tyson a punching bag. I'll put my money on Lin Manuel putting a dumb joke in at the end about that.

I'm sure the last thing Oliver Platt wants to hear is an instrumental from Guys & Dolls.
