By the way I feel like I have a responsibility to all those soccer moms during the midwest who believe they might take their preteen kids to see a charming play about a Mother and Hat when they come to NYC this summer. The clearly show is in reality identified as The Motherfker using the Hat rhymes with sucker but with an F. It can be hilarious plus a great indicate but it can be probably not 1 youd want the kids to see.
nine-49- The Typical Coronary heart wins Greatest RevivalPlay. Superhero handsome Patrick Wilson announces. FTR most everybody I know thats seen The Normal Coronary heart loves it.
FUN Reality- Patrick Wilson attended the opening of Rooms- A Rock Romance. Rooms is now headed to Nebraskas Candy Project Theater.
nine-55- Cast of Memphis performs what appears to be an unrehearsed operation. Either that or the sound guy seriously over-sold his skills. The TDF kids who came to see Memphis 1 night and surprised the cast by performing a variety with them while in their seats steal the display. Serious kudos towards the production team of Memphis who nabbed their second straight nationwide Tony broadcast effectiveness in as many ages. What a difference a Tony makes
10-03- Samuel L Jackson announces War Horse for Preferred New Perform.
ten-05- Anything at all Goes performs. I really like this display and what a great time this year for revivals Cole Porter and Oscar Wilde It just will not get anybetter revivals-wise. Sutton Foster and then the cast get 3 points from downtown on this one particular. Which reminds me….

Sorry JBHs Mother. Too choked up to check the score.

Despite initial impressions of Ms. McDormands exceedingly casual Tony attire apparently jeans jackets are the new black Frances McDormand is a class act and accepts the award to the entire cast and enterprise. Gets my award for Ideal Speech at the Tonys. And truthfully I thought her dressed down nature was kinda cool.
ten-38- No shock here. Sutton Foster wins for Finest Actress Musical. It seems Frances McDormand steals her speech. But What Suttons dating Bobby Cannavale Especially cool. Shes in enjoy Incredibly jealous. Nice shoutout from Sutton to her dresser whos going for being an artist Kudos Sutton By using a nationally televised endorsement from this years Tony winner he is off to a great start
ten-44- Roller coaster-feeling moment for me…Fantastic mix with Paul Schaffer original Weather Girl Martha Wash and cast of Priscilla Queen within the Desert but apparently the producers and marketing team of Priscilla are committed to keeping the flyover states in the dark about the point this present is actually about drag queens.
JBHs Mother- The MAVERICKS WIN IT Still waiting on final score…… This is a banner night to the Hickey family. And Dallas. And Cleveland.
ten-50- Catherine Zeta Jones announces Mark Rylance for Very best Functionality by an Actor Play for Jerusalem. FTR I havent seen this yet. I did see Bobby Cannavale with the Motherfcker together with the Hat. He was incredible. A efficiency well worth the price of admission if not a 2011Tony.
ten-54- Norbert Leo Butz wins for Catch Me If youre able to This is a massive win for Catch Me despite the fact that not unexpected. This Tony win could be the difference between having to close post Tonys and running long enough for your audience to catch them. Norbert thanks his Catch Me dresser as well since the dresser he didnt get time enough to thank for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. I love watching Norbert perform. His entrance kicks the energy level in the entire theater up a notch in every little thing he is in.
Reality- Norbert Leo Butz won a Tony for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels in 2006. He was also in the aformentioned Thou Shalt Not by Harry Connick Jr as well as the ill-fated Enron. Enron ran for a longer-than-it-sounds-if-youd-seen-the-show 16 performances on Broadway in 2010. Of course that opinion could just be the Texas girl in me talking trash.
10-59 – Chris Rock tells it like it will be. We know what the most effective musical is. It really is like taking a hooker to dinner. You know youre gonna get laid. He also mentions the finest basketball recreation ever and missing it sit following to Nathan Lane at the Tonys. I have a sneaking suspicion John Benjamin Hickeys mom defected for the Mavs sport many awards ago.
Most beneficial Musical goes to your Ebook of Mormon. They thank Mormon founder Joseph Smith. Classy
11-03- Neil Patrick Harris does a proper beat down to Hugh Jackman with his hilarious speed through of what happened tonight at the Tonys courtesy of With the Heights Lin Manuel Miranda and Tom Kail. Once more. Hilarious.
All and all there were absolutely no surprises on winners. But damn It is okay This time on Broadway was a little potty-mouthed so damn is in fact pretty mild. This Tony production might just be the best Ive ever seen.
Cant wait until future 12 months I am curious to see how the broadcasts TV Figures faired against The most effective basketball recreation ever
