Suprises - no Borle, no McGovern, no Lange, Beach getting a nomination, no David Hyde Pierce, Philip Bosco getting a nomination - but more importantly - NOT A ONE for Glass, Steel, Good Vibrations, All Shook Up, Bklyn...not good.

I am happy for Erin Dilly, Marc Kudish, John Lithgow and Matt Morrison though. :)

He's John Lithgow. He was BOUND to be nominated... whether or not I actually AGREE with that... *sighs*

Gary Beach was quite the surprise, though. And, yeah. I heard Azaria and Curry and thought, "Okay, they're either nominating all three leads, or that's it." Sad for DHP. I was hoping it would be him and Curry.

Oh my god I'm so happy. John Lithgow is nominated. Maybe he doesn't have a Broadway singing voice but he deserved that nomination.

Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

"Hank Azaria and Tim Curry instead of David Hyde Pierce?!"

Sorry, I totally agree with Tim Curry (playing the straight man role isn't as easy as it looks, especially in a show like that), although I'd have nominated David Hyde Pierce over Hank Azaria. And Christian Borle over Chris Sieber (if it had to be one or the other), although Chris was wonderful. I'm happy for Michael McGrath - I just loved him.

Why Wayne Cilento for choreography? All reviewer and people who saw the show said it was nothing special?

I so don't like all the Spamalot love, 14 nominations. But I was figuring it would be like that. I'm glad Litgow is in, but not real pumped about Azaria or Curry.

I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

I am thrilled to see that the ENTIRE casts in the 2 strongest plays on Broadway have been nominated.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

I really don't get Erin Dilly, but hey. And I'm very upset for Maureen, Christian and Denis. I thought they'd all be there...

bad year for southern ladies

Posted: 5/10/05 at 9:06am

Bad year for women of the south, from the sublime -- GLASS and STREETCAR -- to the, well, less subllime, STEEL. No surprises, really, about Lange and Richardson, both controversial, both with many naysayers in productions that had downbeat reviews. But it's a sad day for lovers of Williams, that his two finest plays are virtual no-shows in awards this season. I know, blame the productions. Okay, I guess we have to -- though I found much to admire in both (admittedly, the minority).

There was also quite a "signal" sent to Jukebox musicals: Basically, stay the f--k away from broadway. No surprise there, either.
