Hello! So, I know that Musical Monday's is about introducing you all to a musical; I am still thinking about what show I want to do next, now that I have time to start this series again. Tonight. I wanted to do a post on the Tony Awards. This will just be a fun post with my opinions on certain categories.
I am so happy that Celia Keenan-Bolger won, I have loved her for years and I am so happy she has her tony for the role of Scout in To Kill A Mocking Bird. I enjoyed her speech and was just beaming for her as I watched.
I don't think it's much of a secret, especially if you follow me on social media, that I love Hadestown. My heart is beaming with love for this cast, and the creatives that so rightfully won awards last night. Hearing the lessons that Andre De Shields and Anais Mitchell put into their speeches I enjoyed, because they were just lessons for actors, or people in the theater community, they were lessons in life and something we can all learn from. Rachel Chavkin, I am so happy that she has her tony now! I enjoyed her work on Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 so much, and I am euphoric that she won last night. The performance I loved, and I am officially sold on Reeve Carney as Orpheus. This musical took home eight Tony Awards, and that is beyond fantastic.
Way back when The Glee Project was on, I watched that show and Ali Stroker was on the show. I remember her being on Glee I believe, but I don't remember the character she played. Ali Stroker became the first person to use a wheel chair for mobility to win a Tony Award last night. I was so happy, even though yes we have a long way to go, I was so ecstatic she won! Her speech was so sweet and heartfelt, and as an bonus, I found out today that she is from New Jersey!
Best revival I was evenly split. I have seen none of the two shows nominated, but had listened to the Kiss Me Kate 2019 Cast Recording since they released it on Friday. I enjoyed it, but I had heard what the new Oklahoma Revival was doing, and I loved the new spin on a classic. As a fan, I enjoy actors from both shows, so I really would be happy either way the vote went. Now that Oklahoma won, I am so happy!!!! I look forward to hearing all the new music when the cast recording comes out soon, but I can tell you that I enjoyed what I heard last night immensely.
Finally, I would like to talk about how happy I am about Stephanie J. Block getting her Tony win! Also, I would like to talk about how happy I am that The Cher Show costumes won.Again, as a fan, I have loved Stephanie J. Block and her talent for years. This is her third nomination and her first well deserved win in my opinion. I have not seen The Cher Show yet, but hearing the cast recording, and seeing the performances, I can see why it was her time to win the award. The costumes in The Cher Show are fabulous, and I loved seeing them last night, and at other broadcast performances.
I loved all the performances last night; I thought they were all so different, and were well done representations of the shows the number's were from.
Did you watch the Tonys? If you, what are your thoughts?
