worst performance by performers at the Tony's — Page 3

I also remember the "play medley" from '99. It just did not work at all. I was so glad when it was over. And the Def Poetry Jam I found painful to watch.

This year, I'd have to say that as awkward and ill-advised as the Jackman/Franklin duet was, Robert Goulet, who clearly didn't know either the lines or the choreography of what he was supposed to be doing, was worse. His performance was an embarrassment.

Anyone care to elaborate on Phyllicia Rashad's performance with the cast of Into the Woods at the Tony Awards?

Yeah, Marissa was off during the start, but I was laughing from seeing John Hill trying to flash his duck mascot in the background. I'm sure I was the only one who noticed that all the light cues were firing just a bit off for the whole number too...

DefyGASPing GASPity-- 2004

Also, I found the Lot's Wife performance that same year to be also not very spectacular. It also made the show very anticlimatic in that it was the eleven o'clock number of a new show. It worked well for Rose's Turn because everyone know's that but Lot's Wife is THE song. I think they should have done Roosevelt Petrucius Coleslaw instead..or a cut of it because it showcased Anika, Tonya and the kids (a selling point) and would have been better on our ears and the box office.
