No, not Tony Soprano, whose HBO reign ended Sunday night... I will miss The Sopranos. Great characters, beautiful acting, fun plot twists and random acts of violence...
Rather, the simultaneously doomed Tony Awards... the best of Broadway... legit theater and all... does anybody watch or care about this anymore? (sigh)
Well, Atlanta's Alliance Theater was awarded the Regional Theatre Tony Award. According to their site, the Alliance is only the second theater in the South to receive the Regional Theatre Tony Award. Anyone who is still down in the Southeast should stop by and see what they're missing... when their season starts back up... in SEPTEMBER. Riiiiiiiiiiiight. That's ridiculous. Or if you have just been by the Alliance, did you happen to catch "Cuttin' Up"? Yet ANOTHER black-man-in-a-barbershop show. Please. Don't even get me started on what's wrong with American Theatre these days...
Other than that, probably all you need to know is that "Spring Awakening" conquered the musicals and Tom Stoppard dominated the straight play categories. About as many surprises there as in the ending of The Sopranos...
