Best Featured Actor in a Musical: Gregory Jbara!

He brought his wife with him up on stage!

It was very thoughtful of him to bring his wife upstage. Certainly gave me something to look at. Dolly Parton's first time at the Tonys and she gets upstaged by Jbarra's wife. Oh, my!

So happy for Greg! So, two of my people, two of my rep company win Tonys this evening. How wonderful. And I love that he brought his wife up on stage - he is a class act all the way.

The sound people should not be allowed next to a mixing board again.

That a major network spending millions of dollars can't figure out which mic to turn on is shocking and amateur and shame on them.

Missed the Tony's, missed the party, missed everything. I'll have to live it vicariously through the posts. $:-\$

My only comments thus far....I would like to see GUYS AND DOLLS.....Neil Patrick Harris is pretty funny (believe it or don't, I have never seen any of his TV shows before)....John Stamos gets better looking every year....ROCK OF AGES does not look like something I would want to see.

All right, I'm now officially annoyed - what was the friggin' retard director of this show thinking in his direction of the dead people tribute. How DARE him - let's see the PEOPLE AND THEIR NAMES, not roaming shots of nameless people singing and blocking the screen on which the names and photos are being projected. Honestly, it's not brain surgery doing these shows and these people are REALLY well paid, yet they do a job that a grade school child would do. How disrespectful and awful and again a new low for this show.

I gotta tell you - that made my blood boil. I now have boiling blood.

It's like they think that no one can stand a static picture. EVERYTHING has to move. No wonder ADD is so rampant today.

Marcia was a surprise to me - I really thought all that Jane Fonda Twittering and Blogging would pay off for her. Oh, well.

The Billy Elliot number did not translate well - I'd bet a different number would have worked better.

Well, I sat outside and enjoyed the lovely evening until it got dark. Then I came inside and watched a few clips, starting at Guys and Dolls. I can't say there's anything that would make me go see a show. And I saw several shows that will probably be in my season tickets in the near future that I will want to give away.

Well, I think that the old Pooh is better than the new Pooh.

I figure I can watch the rest of the clips on youtube. If I think I missed anything. Which I'm not sure I did.
