I cannot believe Passing Strange got a Drama Desk Nod for Choreography

Totally undeserved IMO

Any thread that you post in Liver automatically becomes poisonous.

Way to go Liver. I say this in a nice way. Get professional help quickly before your hatred consumes you.

By the way Liver , this is a Broadway Board. Last time I heard, Drama Desk awards involved Broadway. Am I missing something O wise one?

Hey dumbass, there's already AT LEAST one thread about the DD awards, this thread is simply a waste and pathetic attempt for you to get attention to make you feel better about the fact that you can't get your wife to dress properly.

People on this board need a grasp on reality.


Or maybe a life outside of BroadwayWorld.

My wife right now is with a group of French, Canadian & UK execs at a dinner for her company. She has been lauded by them for making their NY stay great (accomodations etc)

What have you done except take up precious air. Why must you always bring someone else into it? I cannot see anyone being with you so if so they must be deaf, dumb & blind as you are one miserable excuse for a person.

Do not take it personally. Attack me all you want. Bring her into it & it will get nasty

Gotta love unnecessary personal attacks (even though there IS a Drama Desk thread).



Anyway, I haven't seen Passing Strange so I can't comment on the choreography. I guess someone saw something worthy in it. It wouldn't be the first time that a choreography award is given to something that didn't deserve it, IMO.

I did not see the DD thread hence mine

Liver just likes to attack me. I can deal with him but I think you will agree that wives, husbands , boyfriends & girlfriends of posters should be off limits. It is too much to ask that personal attacks leveled at posters stop but attacks against others are unnecessary & uncalled for.

Liver has done this from time to time so I feel the need to stick up for her - nothing more & nothing less.

That attack was a bit uncalled for.

choreography does not mean only lines of show girls tap dancing. Open your mind!

To be fair Roxy, starting a whole new thread about a nomination you didn't agree with is just as unnecessary.

But are personal attacks (especially on a poster's family) ever necessary?

....Just to answer your Q, Mr. Roxy, Caroline is exactly right.... even if JUST for the ingenious "choreography" during the number "The Black One" in Passing Strange, in which Daniel Breaker illustrates with his body language alone, the hilarious and ironic and cynical 100+ year history of blacks in music comedy from the minstrel show to modern day in about 3 minutes . He is brilliant!
