Unfortunately, Megan didn't take home the statue, but goddamn does that husband of hers, Kevin Kern, look handsome!
She did get to perform a part of Hernando's Hideaway with The Connick (Jr. edition) later in the evening.
I've been wanting to see The Pajama Game for a while now, but it had a limited run and sold out really fast. The last public show was Sunday afternoon and while they're still performing it this week, tickets go from $250-$1000 towards some charity. It will be back this fall, apparently, for a full commercial run (minus The Connick, I assume), and hopefully Megan will still be in the cast.
Nick, the lucky bastard, somehow ended up getting free tickets for he and Emily. A fan of the Booker Show who works at the theater emailed him and wanted to give Nick free tickets after the Booker Show went off the air simply because he liked Nick and would miss the show. Better yet, when Nick and Emily arrived, they got their mezzanine tickets bumped up to the center aisle in the orchestra!
I almost forgot, not only did Megan and Kevin go to the Tonys this year, but one of the guys, Steve Rosen, from Utah Arm, Nick's old sketch group, got to go onstage and make an annoucement as his character from Spamalot. All them NYU kids is doin' well.
I thought on the whole it was a great show this year. I probably enjoyed it more than any other straight guy you know. I realize nobody watches the Tonys, really, and I'm sure the ratings will be lousy, but they do a woderful job of advertising all the shows. After it was over, you really feel like you want to go out and see every production featured in the telecast.
