Having Poppins perform right after S.A. won Best Choreography was entertaining, since they (like ALL THE OTHER NOMINATED SHOWS) were worlds better.

I loved the tap dancing in Mary Poppins (SA's award for choreography still baffles me. Love the show but the choreography? stomping, jumping, and hand motions... Fitting but others deserved it miles more) but the entirety (sp?) of the performance, just seemed strange. I don't know. It just seemed very weird.

Choreography is what Curtains has and should have for which it should have won. I actually haven't seen Poppins but I wouldn't go see it based on that performance. I'll slip the DVD in an watch Dick Van Dyke dance across the rooftops.

It's nominated. That was for non-nominated plays.

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

They didn't feature any play that was nominated for Best Play.

WTF is up with the writing of the presenters? It's so pretentious and awful.

Extremely deserved for O'Brien.

I agree, who wrote what those presenters are saying, it is not very good.

The three stages of creepy/annoying:

First stage: Mark Indelicato

Second stage: Bill T. Jones

Final stage: Stephen Sater. Is he just extremely nervous or seriously odd?

Is it just me or do they let some people's speeches go on longer than others?

Baleated reaction but thought the "Curtains" number was horrible; at least "Poopins" had a lot of energy.

Poopins...my God, that was a slip.

I love love love SA but geez, maybe I haven't watched enough backstage stuff but Sater is coming off like an extremely odd duck.
