The Tony Award Folly Follies

The Tony Award Folly Follies

The Tony Award Folly Follies#0

Posted: 8/6/06 at 8:06pm

If you were to plan your own concert of shows and actors who were not given deserving Tony Awards, who would you have perform? Not just ones that should have won, but at least keep them to shows that could have won. It's up to you to choose.

I'll start:

"Make Them Hear You" from Ragtime with Brian Stokes Mitchell: I would do "Wheels of a Dream," but Audra won, thereby making her ineligable.

"All That Jazz" from Chicago with Chita Rivera

What else?


"Who is Stephen Sondheim?" -roninjoey
"The man who wishes he had written Phantom of the Opera!" - SueleenGay

GO CARDINALS!!!

Yes, INTO THE WOODS lost the Best Musical Tony to PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, but it did win Best Score. If that's any consolation.


Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiae
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia

Toni Collette in THE WILD PARTY.

To this day it remains my favorite ("best" is such a subjective word) performance I've ever seen on stage... closely followed by Audra in MARIE CHRISTINE. And they BOTH lost. As if the Tony Award means anything anyway...

I'd just like to add my two cents to the above post. How the hell did Judy Holiday win that year?
