WHAT??!?!??!?? NO LITTLE SHOP?!?!?!?!?! — Page 2

Having seen all five revivals this season, I'd have to say they should have left out Fiddler which was a very uninspiring production. Little Shop was just a pure fun night at the theatre. Fiddler is a better SHOW, so thats how it made the cut.

C'mn every Broadway musical has a little cheese.

A nomination would still be nice to have.
I think its a race between Wonderful Town and Assasins. If Donna doesnt get the Tony Award, they are going to need to award her performance in some way so best revival would be nice, but Assassins got Sondheim screwed over (he's not elligble for Best Score) and it is supposedly the best show this season. Who knows? Leave that up to June 6th.

I'm not surprised about LSOH being absent from the Best Revival list. Uninspired.

FIDDLER should not be getting such a bad rap. I had a wonderful time seeing it. I was expecting 3 hours of this typical, endless warhorse, but was thoroughly entertained. The design for the show is most definitely worthy of the nominations it received.

WONDERFUL TOWN, I thought, was particularly lackluster. I'm shocked to see Jennifer Westfeldt nominated over the two supporting women from AVENUE Q and over Randy Graff for FIDDLER. Bland, bland, bland one-note ingenue. I kept thinking that dozens of other actresses could have been much more interesting in the role of Eileen.

Not at all surprised to see Douglas Sills overlooked. I was amazingly unimpressed with his performance in LSOH. I never thought of Orin the Dentist as a flamboyant queen before. I didn't think it worked at all. (Granted, I don't think it was intentionally played that way... that's just how it seemed to me.)

I wish Rick Lyon from AVENUE Q was recognized for his performance, and for his puppet artistry.

I'm not surprised that Doug Sills was overlooked either. I'm more surprised that certain actors in Assassins were overlooked.

AH! hOW DO I SEE ALL THE NOMINATIONS?

---

The nominations are here.
Tony Nominations

His reaction statement on Broadway.com isnt even that happy. He didnt want to be the only one nominated from the show.

---

it would be best musical-that's probably why. it's the first time it's ever been done on Broadway, said Hunter.

so kerry wasn't nominated? lemme go check.........

I hated the Little Shop revival almost as much as I hated Fiddler. They were both processed cheese. Neither of them deserve a tony nomination.

---

Kerry Butler was miscast, and who expected any more than Sills and Foster? But no Sills.

Kerry was dissed last year, and she did deserve the nom ONLY then.

She performed "Green" like it was her "Now I've tasted chocolate.." number, and was obviously no better than Alice Ripley could have been.

I don't know if I really care or not, but I say they just should have thrown LSOH in there. They probably wouldn't win, but they should at least be nominated.
