Come From Away would have won this season. The agony of if all when the nominees are almost all tied to IPs.
Gender Based Awards? Apr 27

Someone earlier suggested just changing the awards to the style of performance I.e. drama or comedy. I think that could be a solution to maintain the same number of categories without using gender.
The example they gave:
Best actor in a musical Comedy - “Bette Midler” Best actor in a musical Drama - “Ben Platt”
Could this work?

Representation matters, and is important. We need more representation of every group in general. How great would it be if it could just be normal to have random minorties be protagonists for no reason at all? Why can’t it just be normalized?
Imagine a show where a character was gay, or black, or First Nations, or Asian and it really didn’t matter to the story, it wasn’t a part of the story persay, it was just a part of who the person was?

As stated the national tours (all of them) NEVER had anything raise from the traps, but DID have the plants inflate from the deck and DID have the stage rake and unrake. Sit-down productions (like LA and Toronto in the early 2000s, DID have Pride Rock come out of the stage, amoung other things)."

So I wonder if there's any chance this might be a case of scalpers being overly confident in a show and ending up losing money (to the advantage of the show itself)."

Frozen killing it. 4th highest grossing behind Hamilton and two veterans Wicked and Lion King.

Haha apparently! It's strange, every fan message board I've ever been on has been full of people nerding out and loving something together in community not people who don't like something

Is the staircase just on a screen? In the video it looks very 3 dimensional or real.
Okay, I haven't been able to access my original account in a long while (can't remember password and resets won't send...) But I had to make a new one just so I could comment on that Frozen gross... HOLY SHIZ. I about fell off my couch.
