Well, the show actually plays better in the Minskoff, imho. Alas, after the opening number, it still seems a bit long until the curtain call. But at least now more people can see more of "The Circle of Life".

Did Angela have prompter trouble?

It's too bad that Jeff Daniels could not get nominated for his work in Blackbird. He and his co-star, Allison Pill, were amazing!

So... What is everyone eating right now? What is your Tony Awards knosh?

Mine: An Everything Bagel from H&H, with Spicy Hummus.

The new Tony Evening Dinner should be cake with gravy.

Book of a musical....what a lovely acceptance speech.

Wow Melina's dress shows her butt crack.

And, yes, there's some more "screaming" from the teeny-boppers, but after attending last year's ceremony, I believe I heard more of the "Broadway community" hooting and hollering for their comrades, rather then the "teeny-boppers" in the top balcony. *And I also know that there are purposely no microphones anywhere near the balcony.

Jose, it's your friend John!

Matt H. · « **Reply #672 on:** June 10, 2007, 05:31:00 PM »

Jose's dear friend John Kander! Yeah!

Hey, Buddy!

Standing ovation for John Kander.....very good.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #675 on:** June 10, 2007, 05:31:59 PM »

...And he hates talking in front of crowds! He doesn't get stagefright, he just doesn't like it.

What's Greg doing?

He's off giving his old car away to someone.

As for "curtains for Curtains, it's still doing well at the box office. -And, as usually happens at this time of year, with all the other shows closing, it helps to funnel the tourists and "day-of-ers" to the remaining shows.

Too bad they're not doing the "slumber party" scene - those pajamas are nice. -Especially on Jim Newman.

Debra Monk sounded great - very Ethel Mermanish!

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #682 on:** June 10, 2007, 05:35:56 PM »

OH! So that was how they were going to feature Debra Monk tonight.

We did two TNT films with them...Jeff Daniels in the horrid GOODBYE GIRL, but after 3watching him in dailies I became an instant fan. (Can't say the same about Patricia Heaton, but I liked her in the play I saw with Tony Shalhoub last year.)

Allison Pill was in a horrible TNT movie with Farrah Fawcett called BABY but she was the standout.

Fairly early in Act I. There is more to it. After they know that Jessica is dead, they don't want to go on and this is where Cioffi convinces them to go on with the show

I just don't like the "Law & Order" sound effect that starts them off.

I saw it---we had a friend from Atlanta who was doing the bird role and he gave us a full tour backstage and told us quite a few horror stories! That theatre was beautifully restored!

Funny SPAM A LOT commercial.

Idina and Taye looked great in the audience.

Wow - I didn't think it would be....but that moment with Cullum and Audra was a bit jarring to me.....as father and daughter....
