Ok, I can understand that I wasn't nominated for an Outer Critics Circle - so that's not what this is about :) - AND congrats to the four FINE featured actors who were nominated - BUT, WHAT THE HECK??? WHY isn't Mano nominated??? I am so sad. I don't understand. Yes, I know, only 4 nominations, but come on!!!

I'm disappointed in Manoel's snub, myself - but I think by looking at the other threads about the OCC noms, it's not an an unpopular feeling. I don't really let awards sway my own personal opinions - I just hope the great performers/directors/designers/technicians who are snubbed during these things keep on doing a wonderful job, regardless of what happens.

At any rate, I saw an evening performance of Threepenny on April 1st, and I don't think I've ever laughed harder in a Broadway theater than I did during "Lucy's Aria". Completely stole the whole second act. I was so disappointed you at the stage door, but I'm too timid to call people out if I'm not particularly sure they're the right person - blame my bad eyes and the fact I was in the mezz.

Heres how you know how much these noms mean: Hugh Panaro got a nominated for Best Lead Actor. That's all I think I needd to say...


P.S.: I saw you the 5th preview when you threw the cup and bounced back on stage. Priceless! Heres hoping for better luck at the Drama Desk Awards!
