My dear Jane K. looked good.

[vixmom]

Annie proves once again that choreography has just hit its nadir - where Peter Genarro's was perfection, this was just posing and pointless and I loathed the new orchestrations.  Jane Lynch tried hard, sang loud and was completely unfunny, unlike Miss Loudon, Jane Connell, Ruth Kobart and any number of other hilarious Miss Hannigan's.  And the New Yawk accents?

I disagree, I think Jane Lynch did well.  However, I completely agree with the "New Yawk" accent issue...totally unnecessary and distracting.

Still the best musical number we've seen so far.  Not saying much, but there you go

I don' know whad youze guyz are tawkin about I didn't hear no accents

Is Spiderman still playing on broadway? I haven't heard anything about it in a long time.

it is indeed  I think they just stopped crippling the actors

[George]

The number with Laura Benanti, Andrew Rannells and Megan Hilty was fun!

[TCB]

Will! Stop, don't suck anything!

And that's a good thing!

Ahn-DREY-uh Martin!

I really enjoyed NPH's number with Laura Benanti and Megan Hilty. Funny.

And as always I really liked the closing number with Neil and Audra. Wish they weren't so rushed.

Btw, THE SHOW WENT OVER BY ALMOST 10 minutes on the East Coast (for anyone recording it).

CBS in Atlanta cut off the show at 11PM...pissed off a lot of people here! Plus the reporter who was covering it couldn't get half of the award winners right...totally fumbled it. Glad the ending is already on youtube!

That used to happen a lot on the local CBS station, but they've been good about letting the Tonys go long when necessary...probably since the 5th Avenue is getting known as a big pre-Broadway stop.

Apparently, no one in New York or Radio City knew that The Rascals had a Broadway show.

DR Edi!

nobuddy tels me nothin

Could have lived without The Rascals - did you notice they all had earpieces to hear themselves and the band - I fully expect that to become the norm on B'way soon - just as stupid as onstage monitors, if you ask me.

while the TV number was okay, why take up Tony time with something that is self-aggrandizing and pointless?

Exactly...what was the point??

[George]

Wow...they just announced the Best Play!  "Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike."

[George]

Neil Patrick Harris just French kissed the dog from "Annie."

[George]

Caroline O'Connor ALWAYS looks like she just had TONS of energy!  I loved that tap number!

[bk]

Too many kids - enough is enough, and I love kids.  The number, at least, had some actual choreography and shock of shocks - a RIDEOUT and button.

We've actually been on page 26 for an hour.  How did that happen?

[bk]

Oh.

[bk]

Perhaps we can get off this damn page in much less time.

[ChasSmith]

Good evening, and Good night.

What a wonderful 26 pages (so far) of posts.  I just ketchuped on them all.  I'll read the next 26 pages in the a.m., then add some two cents of my own in tomorrow's pages.  Keep up the wonderful posting, everyone!

It's funny about Pippin - for all this reinvention, they can't go all the way and still choreograph in the "style" of Fosse - many of the original steps and positions are there.  Why not do completely different?  I thought it was fun to watch, but I really hate the way Pippin sings.

[George]

I left to get me something to eat and I missed the beginning of the PIPPIN segment.  I loved David Hyde-Pierce's moment!

I agree about the actor playing Pippin.  And watching the segment just now, it was like they had this circus that every once in a while they just threw in a "Fosse move" for no reason.

Billy Porter gave a great speech!

[George]

I really liked Cyndi Lauper's song...but not, of course, the applause.
