Broadway's Warm Fuzzies
Not since The Muppets Take Manhattan have puppets had such a red letter day in New York. Last night, Avenue Q won the Tony for Best Musical (along with the nods for best book and best score). How on Earth it beat out Caroline or Change we'll never know, but we say more power to them.
If Avenue Q and Caroline are any indication, we've got to say that things are really looking up for musical theater. It's thrilling to see such vibrant, groundbreaking works emerging as rejoinders to dreck like Bombay Dreams or whatever Nathan Lane is in. Let's hope that these shows are just the opening salvos in the war to revitalize of The Great White Way.
Since we're talking about theater, why didn't anybody tell us that Peter Krause is starring in a revival of After the Fall? One of the finest, not to mention coolest, actors of his genearation (yeah, we'll stand by that) stars in a play by one of the top five American dramatists, and we have to find out about it in the theater ads in the Arts section?
We're not mad, just disappointed.
