Tony Awards #2

And we're back! (By the way, Mark and Denise are tied for first place in our competition - good on them!)

It's a number from Shrek the Musical (no doubt so the leads can get out of that makeup). Pretty impressive, though I would have thought they'd have showcased a number starring the lead characters (who just delivered a few jokes at the top of the number).

Now it's time for the Best Featured Actress in a Play. The winner: Angela Lansbury! (Thank goodness, I got one right.) She's the first actress to win five Tonys - amazing!
She gets a well-deserved standing ovation. She gives a classy acceptance speech, natch.

Now they introduce a number from a touring show - it's Mamma Mia! That's a good way to inject some fun popular numbers into the show.

Commercial times!

  2. Julie, thanks for the info! That's what I get for trusting the announcer.
