Yes, I'm expecting that to be the musical highlight. Hope all 3 win!

Was it as good a version as this? Sammy Davis can't remember his lyrics.

And a speech that didn't go on forever.

Good evening.

Danya Taymor for best musical director for The Outsiders.

I'll watch clips on Youtube later this week to see what will tour in the next couple of years. I hope there are some good shows coming.

Water for Elephants - have no idea what it actually is and from what I just saw, don't care.

Ah, another movie adaptation (movie was a book adaptation). Certainly, the movie was not a big hit. But this seems to be a trend.

John G. · « **Reply #220 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:14:00 PM »

Maria Friedman lost. That was a surprise.

Daniel Radcliffe wins for Charley in Merrily!

I'm watching a Richard Linklater movie called Everybody Wants Some!! It's ostensibly about college guys wanting to get laid, as the title suggests. But it's also a musical of sorts in that the guys go to a ton of bars, dancing until they find someone to have sex with. The music is nonstop. It's interesting.

Dare I ask - where are ChasSmith, George, elmore, Jrand, etc.

MichaelG · « **Reply #224 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:21:59 PM »

Kecia Lewis for featured musical actress in Hell's Kitchen. Speech includes a shout-out to her ENT.

Singdaw, Jane, who else?

KevinH · « **Reply #226 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:24:06 PM »

I was hoping that Lindsay Mendez would win. I thought she was great in Merrily. I'm so glad that Daniel Radcliffe won.

MichaelG · « **Reply #227 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:27:40 PM »

I'm rooting for all the Merrily folks, but it's the only eligible show I've seen so I'm biased.

bk · « **Reply #228 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:29:55 PM »

No Justin Peck fan, sorry. Jerome Robbins, yes. George Balanchine, yes. Even Stroman's all dance piece, yes.

KevinH · « **Reply #229 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:30:25 PM »

I saw The Mother Play, Cabaret, and Merrily in April.

I remember the glory days - the best of which is when we had over 2,000 posts. Or was that the Oscars?

bk · « **Reply #232 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:32:36 PM »

Oscars. Highest Tony tally was about 1260.

MichaelG · « **Reply #233 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:36:59 PM »

Suffs for best score - Shaina Taub.

singdaw · « **Reply #234 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:41:07 PM »

Thanks, DR MichaelG, for explaining about Stereophonic.

singdaw · « **Reply #235 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:41:49 PM »

"Old Friends." I guess I understand why, but hasn't it been done a zillion times before?

singdaw · « **Reply #236 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:42:46 PM »

I think Suffs may be the closest thing we have among the new musicals this season to a traditional Broadway score.

What did you think about Cabaret? They just did Wilkommen on the show.

John G. · « **Reply #238 on:** June 16, 2024, 06:45:01 PM »

I read somewhere that they may film this production of Merrily.
