I know Twitter is being a clusterfuck, but just in case there is a max walkout, I’m over on BlueSky.

[Phantom @effoff1988]

Rachel Zegler, Alden Ehrenreich and Melissa Barrera all shining at the #TonyAwards tonight; is proof that vicious, relentless, toxic online hate can’t get true talent down.

And these three really are just that : true talents … with the best still to come for them all!

@sourkrowt Why does it sound like it's swimming in toilet water? Maybe the CIA should have used this to waterboard people instead of heavy metal music.

[Cara Joy David @CaraJoyDavid]

Everyone encouraging people to boycott the Tonys—FYI, when the CBS contract was up, no one else wanted the Tonys. And without the Tonys on Broadcast TV, one of our biggest ads for the industry is gone.

[Swell (Let’s Go Knicks!) @cinemaxwell]

I would argue that in today’s day and age it is more important (and radical!) to celebrate black/brown/queer/marginalized joy than it is telling the same old stories of pain and suffering.

[meg 💋 PHOEBE MSG @evitabway]

cats not winning best revival is genuinely the biggest robbery of all time and that is a hill i am willing to die on

[Zach Raffio @zachraffio]

Ultimately Jellicle Ball should win Best Revival not just because it rules but because we need to reward big swings/thoughtful interpretations. None of this is worth anything if all of our revivals have the viewpoint of “we should do Ragtime.”

[Spencer Althouse @SpencerAlthouse]

omg this performance from Cats: The Jellicle Ball at the Tonys...y'all need to see this show ASAP!!!

also not Anna Wintour and Andrew Lloyd Webber appearing as judges at the end

[Tess of the d'Ysfunctional 📚☕⳩ @madamlibra_rian]

Gonna post my yearly rant:

These people who light the stage, who costume the actors, who make it all sound good, the teacher getting the recognition, SHOULD BE ON THE MAIN BROADCAST!! They are the heart and foundation of broadway and shouldn’t be shuffled off to an early stream

[Simon K @86TB]

@HeyFagatha With The Birdcage we have tiers of villains, Val is the supporting villain and Kevin the lead, though the photographers who rubbish away the note make for good side villains, I’m not sure what Barbra did to be villainous though.

[eliza ❤️ (she/her) @duncacclno]

Pride Month means a special twist on the "The Boyfriend in The Devil Wears Prada is the real villain" discourse

[kira-ann @charrlysa]

Im bummed about the Tiana series getting axed cause I wanted more of not just her relationships with her husband and lottie and her mom, but I also wanted to see more of her other relationships like these. Wanted to see her community uplifting and celebrating her achievements. :(

@regularaugust Same here, though I class 4 stars as great & 5 stars as exceptional, 2 is ok, 1 is bad and 0 is terrible. Half stars if I relate to the story or it has a song I know or if it's made a big impact.

[milo ♡ ⸆⸉ taybriana stan ꕤ @badideaarix]

this is literally like a treaty of versailles

[Simon K @86TB]

If I'd been in her place, I would have had a Put Your Hearts Up one in the chair for shits & giggles

[jordyn ♡ @jordynceIeste]

YOURS TRULY AND DANGEROUS WOMAN

[Simon K @86TB]

@meloismone My jaw dropped hearing the start of honeymoon avenue.

[Joe🌟 @Iamofficialjoe]

Such a representational photo

[Simon K @86TB]

@arianatorswildt @meloismone The concept of her doing Popular with an Elphaba from the crowd is strong but if she does an emotional song set with Girl In The Bubble, I’ll full on freak out.

[Simon K @86TB]

The way Ari saw everyone saying positions was done dirty & decided to make the fans put their money where their mouths are. The title track is one thing but just like magic & safety net? If she does my hair I think I might actually ascend #eternalsunshinetour

[🪡 @girlpov]

it's three in the morning and i just teared up
