Xanadu is going to win the Tony!

Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

FIE upon you MusicalMaster. "Would I be a god, I would smite him". XaNaDu all the way!!! from RC in Austin, TExas

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Can we quote the future Tony-winning book correctly please
"Would that I were a god, I would smite him!"

And either way it goes for Xanadu, I think Cubby should take a page from the book that is Kathy Griffin at the Shmemmys.

Sadly, he'll do exactly the same thing Hillary Clinton is doing right now.

As of now, I think...

IN THE HEIGHTS has a 50% chance
XANADU has a 25% chance
PASSING STRANGE has a 20% chance
CRY-BABY has a 5% chance

Xanadu can split the IN THE HEIGHTS and PASSING STRANGE votes and take the Cubcake home.
YES IT CAN!

re: What is Cubby gonna do when Xanadu Loses for Best Musical?#23

Posted: 6/1/08 at 12:36am

I don't see how XANADU could possibly split PS and ITH's votes...PS and ITH are completely polar opposite shows. ITH will win, however, because it's got a great mixture of what the other nominees all have separately.

It's fun and highly entertaining (XANADU), it's really original (PASSING STRANGE), and it's got a bit of old-fashioned sensibility mixed with contemporary touches (CRY-BABY). Some achieve the above connotations more successfully than others, but ITH has all of them.

It's going to win...XANADU is going to have to do way more than pull out a smart, witty ad campaign to take home the Tony for Best Musical (although I'd much rather see it win than PASSING STRANGE).

On Playbill.com, they did a survey, "who do you want to win Best Musical". "Xanadu" won over "In the Heights" by about 10%.
