Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Tonys are on tonight! I'm so excited. It hasn't gotten too much media this year (at least not that I've noticed), which surprises me, seeing as it's the 60th anniversary.

So what are your predictions? Do they match up to what you really hope wins? Which award's got you the most excited? Expecting any sleeper hits?

I'm personally excited about the musical revival category. I'm torn between rooting for Sweeny Todd and Threepenny Opera, but I'm pretty sure The Pajama Game is going to win.

I agree I hope sweeny todd gets something!

Gah, Sutton didn't win! confused I guess the third time will have to be the charm...

The Tony's this year really kinda... what's the word... sucked.

I was not looking forward to them much at all, but I was even more disappointed then I though I would be.
I had only seen two shows all season that I liked. Three Penny Opera didn't win anything and Tarzan didn't even get nominated for anything but lighting (which it lost).

None of the performances entertained me...
I want to see Drowsy Chaperone even less now then I did before. Sweeney Todd I would like to see, but my mother won't.
Already saw Three Penny, and Cindy Laper still sucks.
Don't like the music of the Four Seasons so no interest in Jersey Boys.
Pajama Game looks boring.
Wedding Singer looks cheesy and corny.
Color Purple was the only thing that turned my head towards the TV the whole night and that's cus they just screamed "Hell no!" a lot and it made me laugh.

Didn't really pay much attention to who won what except best revival and new musical, cus I had bets going with my mom on them. She won both, I lost.

What happened with "Music of the Night"?

Poor Howard. How embarassing that would be...

Anyway, I thought the Wedding Singer looks God-awful, but I'd be interested in the Pajama Game.

LaChanze totally went to the school I'm visiting this summer. : D

I agree: the cast of The Wedding Singer appeared to be having more fun up there than any other group that performed. Plus, that was the only vignette I saw that I really found myself interested in performing in. Granted, if I was in NYC auditioning right now, I'd go through everything, but that is the one I'd be most interested in actually making it into.

The entire evening bored me, mainly because I knew almost nothing about this year's contenders and didn't make it down to NYC to see anything. I'm glad Hal Prince got the achievement award and hopefully next season will bring in some better shows. I can't wait for September for A Chorus Line!

I was so sad Manoel Felciano didn't win best featured actor. ;_;

It's okay, Manoel! I still love you!

I was rooting for Sweeney and Threepenny

Who'da thunk that Nightcrawler (Alan Cumming) could sing?

You can tell that he dances, but not that he sings

Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), too

All these X-Men people who perform!

Anywayyy

I thought it was cool how the actors play the instruments in Sweeney

Although Patti, in my parents' opinion, didn't bring out the "witty lyrics" enough... I love the "the worst pies in London!" part x3

And Threepenny Opera is just plain cool x3

What musical ended up winning?

I wasn't able to watch the whole thing : P
