Only 710 posts (approx) for a new record - and two hours.

Matt Cavanaugh is pretty darned cute!

Well, after seeing the clips, if my sister were to invite me to come visit her and offer a one-day trip to NYC to see a show, I'd only be interested in seeing Curtains.

Okay - how obnoxious is Julie White. A shame Vanessa didn't win, even though I haven't seen any of the performances.

Okay - Step in Time is a movie number - understood. It's also got GREAT choreography. Who cares if it could be replicated on stage - my only point is it has great choreography and what I saw on the Tonys tonight did not have great choreography or even inventive choreography - it was simply ordinary. It's not the end of the world, really.

What has Swoozie Kurtz done to her face?

Well, I guess I did workout this morning... At least my right arm - bicep - is "reminding" me right now that I worked out this morning. I guess I shall have to catch up on the remaining 13 pages of posts in the morning.

Goodnight.

Hairspray, the movie - if this was supposed to sell the film, well, I'm not sure it's going to be what its studio would like us to THINK it's going to be. They pretend they're downplaying the film to avoid hyping it like Dreamgirls, but they are hyping like crazy and have been for five months.

Haven't seen anything from anything that would make me actually want to see it - play or musical. These little snippets are not well chosen and do not show off the shows - at least not yet.

Okay - what WERE those pants that idiot was wearing?

They match a pair of double-knit Black Watch plaid I have - very fashionable in the 70s (nineteen).

I believe "Step in Time" would have come off better if had been taped at the theatre, and shown from the audience - rather than all the close-ups. The stage pictures are quite nice, and Matthew Bourne really does know how to fill the stage.

Alas, I think Mary Poppins had the hardest time putting together a Tony package due to the size of the set - and all the mechanics of the set. And, even though it is nice to hear more than one tune from a show, the medleys never really work for me.

*And there is one point in Mary Poppins where Bert does walk around the proscenium arch.

And even if you can see the wires, it's still impressive.

But what film in not hyped to the max nowadays?

I meant to mention this earlier. But I actually think there was a musical version of "Valley Girl" floating around a couple of years ago. I shall have to Google.

Matt Cavenaugh

That wig does him no favors.

I don't envy DakotaCelt tonight -- having to read all these pages of posts at once!

I know I missed it already and it has perhaps been posted, but did Christine Ebersole win?

When I left to work on a project it was on page 7 and I have read 3 pages....
