Do we HAVE to have a BLACK version of EVERY classic American play? Do we?

I am playing the mother next season in the all-white production of RAISIN IN THE SUN.

Oh, I know I'm in the minority about this show.

I'll join you there, though the film made the show more accessible to me.

I'll do what I always do for Awards posts - post only during the commercial breaks. I don't like having the computer in the room where I'm watching - I don't concentrate that way.

There are actually some songs and harmonies in IN THE HEIGHTS that remind me of RENT

Is this some new thing to kiss the person next to you when they show you for a nomination

It's sort of a good luck thing, as well as a PDTY - Public Display of a Thank You.

Oh... Well, Debbie Allen added a strolling saxophone player to Cat on a Hot Tin Roof... What are you going to add? A tuba?

Oh I get that, but I don't remember seeing it much before, at least not before the winner was announced

I was very happy for both actor and actress starring in a musical.

What a partay we're having. I feel that soon we will be the most popular site on all the Internet.

Hmm, Richard just informed me that he's never liked Gypsy. We've been married 27 years and I never knew that.

There were several songs from the musical Bare that were quite similar to Rent, also...several too many, if you ask me.

bk · « **Reply #1011 on:** June 15, 2008, 08:01:32 PM »

Well, I'll get comfy for watching.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #1012 on:** June 15, 2008, 08:01:43 PM »

Here we go....

Alas, there will be no closing number.... Just the final award...

-When was the last time they had a closing number on The Tonys?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #1013 on:** June 15, 2008, 08:02:03 PM »

Oops.. Audio bloop.

That's a shame. In my mind, a perfect show.
