Tony Awards Recap

Here are my picks for highs (and lows) of Tony Night: ~ Loved the two former Finches (Robert Morse and Matthew Broderick) introducing the "How to Succeed" number, which was fantastic. How Daniel Radcliffe didn't score a nomination is beyond me. He's so charming, if NPH can't host next year, I know the go-to guy. ~ The "Book of Mormon" number was so good I almost didn't want to watch since you can't get tickets unless you crawl through the air shafts of the theater. ~ So moved by "The Normal Heart" winners, especially Larry Kramer. ~ Norbert and John Larroquette winning--yeah, I'm confused. ~ I don't get the "Anything Goes" revival's acclaim. Everybody looked bored, and the choreography was pretty blah. Sutton, you've done better. ~ Mark Rylance continues to be my hero. ~ Frances McDormand, I love you, but what the hell were you wearing? Did you just show up from tipping a cow? ~ Kudos to Bo
