Drama Desk Awards on Theater Mania?

[ILuv2shop531]

I know when the Drama Desk Awards were still at the high school of performing arts, Theater Mania would broadcast them live on their site...but with them being at Town Hall now is this still happening? Couldn't find anything the website

yay! thanks :)

[qolbinau]

I don't think BWW is doing a broadcast. THey are just doing live updates. The stream is:

It looks like they are setting up for the red carpet at the moment

Just got the 2 minute warning from Brian D'arcy James' voice! Who else is watching?

[Wynbish]

Still don't see how Steve Kazee and Nina Arianda were snubbed

[theatreguy]

Nina Arianda was eligible in 2010 for the Off-Broadway production of Venus in Fur.

gawd what an awful show so far. only theatre dweebs like us could tolerate watching this dreck!

[supersam1026]

This is just terrible!! The voice, a performance from On a Clear Day. What is going on?!?!

[qolbinau]

It's tacky and cheap, and the jokes are boring or obvious....but it's so genuine and non-commercial. It's nice...

I did love the "Do you know Rose's Turn?" snide though :P.

[bjh2114]

Tom Edden's speech has been the highlight so far.

[thetinymagic2]

eek that last note

[qolbinau]

It's awkward how many people didn't show up lol..

[jv92]

The sound on the live stream sucks. And as usual, these awards are a joke, rarely actually awarding Off-Broadway. And WHY is Brooke Shields hosting?

[bjh2114]

A lot of people are working on other projects elsewhere.

[TheatreKid3]

"A lot" being the entire cast/creative team of ONCE, lol. I can't believe they didn't send at least one person!

[DAME]

I missed the beginning. What happened with Gwyneth?

[ljay889]

Danny!!!!

The Tony could be his next.

[Far From Home]

So happy for Tom Edden. He's wonderful!

[bjh2114]

"A lot" being the entire cast/creative team of ONCE, lol. I can't believe they didn't send at least one person!

Well most of them live in the UK...

[ACL2006]

ONCE WINS!!!! Hopefully the Tony will be next!!!

[HeyMrMusic]

To be fair, an Off-Broadway show won Outstanding Play in a category that did contain Broadway productions. Congrats!

[stevenycguy]

Do they do any performances like they do at the Tony Awards? Will this be rebroadcast either on TV or on the web ?

[HeyMrMusic]

They had a handful of performances, no one in costume, and accompanied by a piano/bass/drums trio.

[jv92]

MrMusic, That IS indeed true.

What was the "Do you know Rose's Turn" joke?
