My favorite is how she's wearing that glitzy dress and he's wearing jeans and a T shirt and you don't even pause. That, my friends, is the magic of theatre.
A Grease alumni and a future Grease star! Stockard is as beautiful as she was when she played Rizzo. I'm excited to see Aaron play Danny in Grease Live in two weeks. Also the guy from Poison I feel bad he got hurt in the beginning
Aaron Tveit is the quintessential Broadway star and deserves all the accolades. I’m so lucky to have seen him. What a great performance with Stockard Channing.
Can I just say I love how it was kind of flirty? Stockard ruffled her boa at Aaron. Aaron pulled at a strand of her hair. Guh. I love him way too much.
Part of the issue with this "mashup" of these songs is that the music and the lyrics of these two songs do NOT mashup. They don't complement each other, they don't create a richer experience; all they do is make both performers look very uncomfortable and out of their elements. The Tonys should have given both performers (actually, all of this medley) the opportunity to do their songs alone, in context.
What a fabulus duet!! :D It was so sexy when Stockard draped her fur over Aaron's shoulder and when he twirled her hair. They both have gorgeous, powerful voices and just ooze sex appeal. Very hot.
That's kind of true. However, I think the reason they put these two together is because of Stockard Channing's character is Pal Joey. Her character has a sexual affair with a young boy in his early twenties, which fits the description of Gabe. Thus, I guess they wanted to create a fantasy in which Gabe was her secret young lover. It's still odd though nonethless....lol
Tveit looks a little lost without the bars to dance around, ahah. Damn the Tony's for giving these two 1 freaking minute to perform while Shrek can afford to have the entire goddamn cast on stage.
@jrny10011 i wouldnt say that it gives musicals bad names, its just not in the same league as most of the musicals on broadway! I like the musical but i dont think it deserved a place on broadway a national tour would have been more suited for a show like shrek
