Well, it's basically the only 15 seconds of the play that does not have a four-letter word in it.

Oh....Jose!!!!!

Share! Did he just sit and watch, or did you get to meet him? What's he like? (She asks breathlessly!)

We all just sat and watched. Catch your breath.

Is anyone watching the extended thanks on CBS.com? Would it have been worth watching.

**And here's a bit of "insider info" - One of Whoopi Goldberg's requirements for hosting this year's Tony Awards was that each new musical be able to perform somehow during the broadcast. -Consequently, the musicals that were nominated for Best Score, but not in the Best Musical category, will be performing as part of the "listing" of the Best Score nominees.

GO WHOOPI!!!

That's pretty cool! I had read that certain non-"Best Musical" nominees were performing and was very surprised at that.

I've seen some of them. I think they're keeping them up on the Tony Awards site after tonight.

There's a local commercial for AVENUE Q since it's the next national tour coming through here.

Charlotte just called me from rehearsal for THE PRODUCERS to wish me a happy Father's Day!!!!!

That's so sweet! I actually called my friend Margo and wished her a happy Father's Day, too! (She's a single parent.)

Mary Louise wearing a short dress. best Actor in a Play.

3DDiffusion · « **Reply #730 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:57:36 PM »

Okay, they're showing hte nominees this time, but they DIDN"T do it for best director!

Matt H. · « **Reply #731 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:57:55 PM »

There's a bit of an upset for Best Actor.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #732 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:58:17 PM »

Wow - that play must be a HELL of a lot better than the movie version.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #733 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:58:22 PM »

OK - This category is sort of up in the air for me....

But I'm very happy for who won.

And another "streak" continues.

And I wonder if the other role-related streak will continue tonight.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #734 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:58:47 PM »

Hooray for best actor! I saw him at the Globe in London in 2002 in a wonderful adaptation of Apuleius' THE GOLDEN ASS.

Well...dang. I missed him. (I only turned on the TV 10 minutes ago. Or similar...)

Is he sitting next to anyone of interest? I assume Marie Aitkin?

Matt H. · « **Reply #736 on:** June 15, 2008, 06:59:37 PM »

Well... I thought they did.

In any case... I think The 39 Steps gets another clip later on. -Or was that earlier?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #738 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:00:05 PM »

Is that from the play?

Matt H. · « **Reply #739 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:00:34 PM »

Best Play Actress

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #740 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:00:39 PM »

OK - Best Actress In A Play - Now let's see if the women of Osage County will cancel each other out...

3DDiffusion · « **Reply #741 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:00:53 PM »

They showed a clip of a train conductor switching hats as a bobby.

And my goodness Alex Baldwin is heav-vy.... course I haven't seen him since THe Shadow.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #742 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:01:32 PM »

Her dress doesn't fit, but it's a pretty color....

Matt H. · « **Reply #743 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:01:35 PM »

That's not much of a surprise, is it?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #744 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:01:50 PM »

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SEMI-SPOILER

And she gave her final performance this afternoon.

That cancel out stuff doesn't usually work that way for the Tonys.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #747 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:03:25 PM »

Lovely speech....

Cillaliz · « **Reply #748 on:** June 15, 2008, 07:03:29 PM »

So they let the guy ramble on about nonsense and they cut her off....
