Jotham Posted June 9 Posted June 9 So I watched Merrily We Roll Along on my trip to NYC and absolutely loved it! Jonathan Groff is absolutely perfect for the role of Frank. Also I could not stop staring at his ass the entire show. I live in the Bay Area and watched the production of Galileo that's going on in Berkeley. It's been getting lukewarm reviews but I enjoyed it? I wish Javier Munoz had more songs though.
Hector Posted June 10 Posted June 10 (edited) And just like that, we have a tight race for the Lead Actress In A Play Tony Award this year: I'm still predicting Sarah to win, but genuinely would not be shocked if Legend Lange won and it would be deserved. Edited June 11 by Hector 1

WildAmerican Posted June 16 Posted June 16 in the city this weekend and saw Stereophonic and Merrily! Really liked Merrily, the cast was great especially the main trio. I respected Stereophonic but it was SO long and a little light on the overall plot for me to say I really enjoyed it... loved the music in both tho a solid weekend at the theater overall
