Posted: 6/15/08 at 10:36pmThat's funny. I thought Max did well and Laura was really off key.
#11re: Grease Production Number on the Tony Awards
Posted: 6/15/08 at 10:39pmLaura wasn't really offkey but was singing in a lower register than she normally does. In the regular show her and Max are not part of that number.

Posted: 6/15/08 at 11:11pmI just wish they did a better combination of numbers. Or like a mega-mix of lots of numbers...

Posted: 6/15/08 at 11:59pmI just felt embarrassed for Kathleen Marshall. That choreography was...embarrassingly bad. It wasn't good, wasn't bad, it was alright.

Posted: 6/16/08 at 12:01amAs I mentioned on another thread I've seen probably half a dozen high school productions of Grease. All but one of them as I recall had more real energy and a sense of fun that this number. This was like a group of robots programmed to move, sing, and smile.

I'm biased because I HATE this show...
But I thought the principals were decent enough, not as much energy as they should have, but when the ensemble came in, they were a bunch of robots that brought the energy level down further, which was disappointing.

Posted: 6/16/08 at 12:07amIt didn't start off good, but it didn't end all that bad. The choreography was fine.
