Posted: 5/14/07 at 12:47amWe can't have a thread about the prestigious RIEDEL AWARDS without mentioning THE LITTLE WHOREHOUSE GOES PUBLIC, easily one of the worst scores I've ever heard. I do like "Picture Show" though, is that bad?

Merrily We Roll Along
Seussical
We Take the Town
I Remember Mama
Alright, I think the flop thing is losing steam.
Most people have hit the nail on the head with their predictions. I think we'll see a plethora of nods for Spring Awakening and Grey Gardens, less so for LoveMusik and Curtains and some scattered ones for Legally Blonde an Poppins.

CURTAINS
GREY GARDENS
LOVEMUSIK
SPRING AWAKENING
but LOVEMUSIK could easily be changed with LEGALLY BLONDE, though i think PIRATE QUEEN deserves a nomination more than BLONDE
