Scoring a win

And it's one wrong and one right. Spring got Best Score, and now musical theatre rocks, according to Duncan. Ok, you've won, you don't have to kiss ass anymore. Duncan's got a bit of a Pierce Brosnan thing going on, he's looking good. The last time I saw him perform, at Market Days, he looked like he was homeless. Then, in the wrong column, but oh so nice to see, was Mary Louise Wilson winning Best Featured Actress, and giving the best acceptance speech since 1991. How about Audra's performance. Christine's competiton is more formidable than I thought. Wouldn't it be ironic if Mary goes home with the award and Christine goes away empty handed? It would certainly change the marketing plan, but might actually heighten act 2's dramatic tension. It looks like I won't be seeing 110 after all, which is too bad, after this performance I'd love to see the whole thing, but at least I've got Audra and Patti to look forward to in August at Ravinia (btw, I did get the Heather Headley ticket and MHF dress rehearsal ticket. Ok, get Bloomberg off the screen).
