SO the tony opening was really good! Sean Hayes is funny and can play the piano really well. he made alot of jokes about his being gay. it was really funny wen he did a full on make-out session with kristen chenoweth on stage.....with lots and lots of tongue. performances by million dollar quartet, la cage aux folles, kristen chenoweth, and green day were my favs.
The performance by fela! in the opening was kinda awkward because there was a woman who you could see was lip syncing but she was lip syncing to different words that were being sung. she was mouthing words. all i heard was oohs and ahhs. it was kinda weird.
La cage performance was fabulous! in the end drag queens came through the isles from the back of the theater dressed in red and black brasiers and lots of feathers. Kelsey Grammer who play Georges is fantastic!
Angela Lansbury is as much a legend as ever. shes won 5 tonys and is still kicking at 85!!!
Memphis looks sooooo good! the main girl has some amazing pipes! and the choreography and dancers were brilliant! the boys did like 5 perfect barrel turns in a row! it was beautiful.
Catherine zeta-jones singing send in the clowns........meh. i liked her better in chicago. she started crying at the end though which was pretty intense.
Denzel washington just made a really funny face wen his character's wife said that her husband(denzel) was into another woman. he made a yikes face. lol. and poor rosemary harris couldn't read the teleprompter. :(
Fela!......i didnt really like it. it was very lively and colorful but all i saw was a nigerian dance party. and that was kinda it.
Come fly with me had some really amazing dancers. choreographed by twyla tharp of course.
Promises, Promises!! i want to see it soooo bad!!!
im getting kinda tired and this show is really dragging on so this is where the details are going to start getting fuzzy.
laura bell bundy is still waiting for her spot on glee. matthew morrison is sexy as ever in his best vest. and lea michele was not as good live as she is on the recording of dont rain on my parade. but the final note was good. i was really excited for the glee performance! i wanted them to do something together and i didnt get that so now i am disappointed. :(
american idiot......i like. yay rock musicals!!
catherine zeta-jones won for best actress in a musical from a little night music. she was all open mouthed and surprised but she stood up really quickly. it was funny. she had trouble coming up the stairs in her overflowing mermaid gown. she got played off the stage because her speech was getting too long. lol
winner of best actor in a musical was douglas hodge from la cage aux folles. yay! he's such a talented drag queen!
bernadette peters announced the winner for best musical. and the winner is..............
MEMPHIS!!!!!
im not surprised, i just havent seen the show so i dont think i really have an opinion of if it really was the best musical. congratulations to the cast and crew of memphis!!!
