Aaron Tveit is going to be a huge star. He may even see an Oscar for his portrayal of Goldilocks in the upcoming feature Les Miserables.

But who will play the three bears? Tom Chase, Arpad Miklos and an unknown "actor", maybe.

The last time I worked on a cruise ship, it was being sued by the Really Useful Group for copyright infringement. Yikes!

Gotta admit, I never saw this coming...oh well.

That's what they said on the Titanic, too.

These people are stupid. Live showtune does not a good show make. Live action porno is where it's at. Bring back the Oh! Calcuttas!!! to the Great White Way and you'll see BANK.

Everybody! Everybody! Hunter Foster has commented on this, via Twitter!

"A cruise ship is performing on the Tonys? Why not invite Ellen's Stardust Diner to perform as well."

A swell idea.

I'd be against the idea of RCC doing a number on the Tony's, but I lovelovelovelovelove Hairspray, so...

Looks like RCCL has their own reporter on the red carpet, interviewing Hugh Jackman, no less (shouldn't he be escaping the sewers of Paris right now?).

I think they are performing because this year will be Hairspray's Tenth Anniversary as it opened in 2002.

But frankly i wish they had dug into the vaults and showed us some pro shot footage of one of the Broadway companys- The OBC especially.

I know it has to be streamlined for the cruise crowd, but Tracy is both skinny...and approaching 40?

It wasn't too bad. It wasn't great, but it exceeded my exceedingly poor expectations.

PitPro2004 it sounds like you also worked for Carnival.

Old Tracy was pretty good, I thought. It was as weird and off-putting as anything else during the rest of the show, but it certainly wasn't the low point of the evening.

Granny Turnbladder Control Problems was pretty good. She was more entertaining than Goddamnspell.
