I'm not a huge Broadway fan....but Spring Awakening is something I really wanna see...I love Duncan Sheik and I've heard some of the songs from the show and they are good...so it makes me wanna see it....hopefully it's coming to Boston soon
A man after my heart!
Yes. I'm glad it won everything it did as well. Some other personal notes on the Tonys last night (I DVRed 'The Sopranos'):
- Every year, there's a breakdown performance (last year: Wedding Singer), this year was no doubt 'Spring Awakening'. Why were most shows so tame about their highest form of exposure? 'A Chorus Line' and 'Mary Poppins' were a close second.
- Ouch. David Hyde Pierce over Raul Esparza. I couldn't believe it. For 'Curtains' of all things too... At least another John Doyle production didn't lose this time.
- I adore Julie White. Best speech of the night. Why aren't people more excited like her and Bill T. Jones when they win? Second most was probably Mary Louise Wilson.
- Per 'The Little Dog Laughed' clip, did anyone notice who Jon Groff brought as his date?
- The snob ticket of the season ('Coast of Utopia') made a new record for wins in a play. Not much a shocker, but still... a little peeved... or jealous. Though am glad Jennifer Ehle won over co-star Martha Plimpton.
- Stark Sands was definately the best looking lad there for me last night.
- It's nice to see 'Jersey Boys' can still bring the house down despite John Llyod Young being an ass. It was a little odd for me to see Fantasia at the Tonys, but I guess it worked.
- Yay for 'Journey's End' going out on top. They closed the show a few hours prior the the Tonys yesterday.
- Can it be? We made it through one award show without a slapstick pop culture referenced joke and on time clocking in at precisely 3 hours. Take note, Oscar... Grammy.... Emmy.

Ew i hate spring awakening. Emo music on Broadway? No thanks.
Then again I'm a huge classic-broadway fan so what can I say? (I mean I love modern stuff like RENT, Avenue Q, etc...but I generally prefer the classic stuff)

The Tonys always end on time. It's also always the best awards show because the dialogue is smarter. The presenters are usually not mega-stars just getting exposure, and the awards they are giving out are usually for a higher level of art (so to speak).
Despite that, I must say I wasn't too impressed with the excerpt from "Spring Awakening." The singing wasn't great and the dancing was really dull.

Well, that number absolutely did NOT work out of the context of the show. When I saw it I was like WTF? This is the best new musical?!

I wasn't saying it was emo, I'm just saying the music sounds that way to me. And I'm not judging it based on one song, I've listened to the cd and heard about the plot, etc, and it just sounds awkward and lame to me. But thats just my opinion
Then they should cut out the musical numbers and make the show shorter.
And, what is emo?
