i have a silly question:
you know how tony awards give best actor/actress awards in a musical? how much of the award criteria is acting and how much is singing/dancing? do you have to be able to do all of them? is it how great you did the songs? how great you did the role? how great you are in general and talentwise?
not that i'm planning to win one or anything, but i was just wondering how it works.

"...But Kungurtseva reels off multiple fouettes and the tape is stopped so she can take a bow. The Jester, an abomination introduced to Swan Lake in Soviet times, extorts applause from the audience. The cuts don't help the storytelling, the production is bare bones and they go for the '50s-style happy ending.
The audience cheers like mad at the end. It's the Russian ballet, after all..."

It also helps if you are as charismatic as Hugh or as irrepressible as Norbert Leo 
It won't hurt if you also play the role at the Imperial

Posted: 8/24/05 at 5:02amJo i thought the same thing about the leading male award..... you don't win any award other then leading male, or at least that is how the past two shows have panned out!
