I just came home and the performances that I can't get out of my head and just want to see again are the following:
Alice Ripley as Gabe in Next to Normal "I'm Alive"
Kelli O'Hara as Billy Flynn in CHICAGO "All I Care About is Love"
Christopher Jackson as Deena in DREAMGIRLS "Listen"
Kudos to Laura Linney who was honored this evening!!!
If any of you went as well, which ones were your favorites. They were all amazing!

Based on the videos I've seen Jennifer Nettles really blew me away!

Was also there. Not a single bad performance.
I think Jennifer Nettles singing It All Fades Away was my favorite. Karen Olivo's as Roger was also stunning.
Was Eva Noblezada okay? She bolted right after her song, maybe she was under the weather...but she sounded incredible regardless.

I agree, one excellent performance after another. I think Alice Ripley doing "I'm Alive" may have been my favorite, with Gavin Creel, Andy Karl and Jason Tam's hilarious "You Gotta have A Gimmick" worth mention as well. This was my first Miscast, and will not be my last.

That evening went by so quickly. It was also my first miscast and won't be my last.
I wish Jason Tam had a solo though!!!! Yes, those three men were great!
For Kelli's number, I wish she had a gaggle of male feather fan dancers instead of females since, after all, this is miscast!

I believe the dancers were from the cast when Kelli's father-in-law James Naughton played (and won the Tony as) Billy, as a tribute to him.

Just out of curiosity - how much are the tickets to this event? Asking for next year's show.

I saw a video of the mean girls/jersey boys crossover and thought they were amazing, but Chris Jackson singing Listen...I wish I could have witnessed that! I love his voice. Glad you had such an amazing evening!

I've watched some of the vids, but not all. Looks like it was an amazing night!
Would anyone happen to know what the performance order was for the evening?

Jennifer Nettles, Stephanie J Block and Christopher Jackson were fantastic.
Although, I thought the Mean Girls’ ladies were a little awkward and off key in places - it was a little uncomfortable to watch at times.

The videos on their website are in chronological order (starts with the mean girls and ends with Kelli O’Hara.)
