Back again, and just over an hour to go! Will my fingers survive?
The cast of Mamma Mia salute... I dunno, the empty seats available for you to sit in? I'm not clear on this one. Go figure.
Mary Louise Parker shows up to hand out the award for the Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play. Funny, she doesn't say the name "Macbeth," since it's bad luck. She calls it "The Scottish Play." The winner: Mark Rylands, Boeing, Boeing. His acceptance speech is delivered like a safety lecture. Deadpan and funny. (The audience howls when they show an actress agog at his bizarre speech.)
Alec Baldwin shows up to present the award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play. Whoops, he said "Macbeth!" The winner: Deanna Dunagan, August: Osage County. She's stunned, but giving a sweet acceptance speech, thanking the acceptance they've had from New York (the show started in Chicago).
Time for a performance from In The Heights. Very impressive, lots of energy - it's easy to see why this show's getting lots of attention.
Break!
