No, those were the Drama League nods, these are the (much more prestigious) Drama Desk nods.

(*insert grumpy smiley*) www.theatermania.com/content/show.cfm/show/143384Fingers crossed for Rufie, Sinead and the play!!! (Someone can record this for the site, yes? Pleeeeaaasssse!) |

I couldn't record it, but no matter. No sightings and neither he nor Sinead won. Going to bed now.

Oh, Rai, all that effort for nothing - thanks anyway. Rufus wuz robbed! And by the same actor who robbed him of his BAFTA for TOTS - grrrr! I haven't been able to find any photos of Rufus (yet!), so I wonder if he attended? Anyhoo, the Drama Desk Awards are embroiled in a bit of scandal: goldderby.latimes.com/awards_goldderby/2008/05/will-scandal-an.html So they're not worthy of him, right?  |

I watched part of the webcast. What struck me was that half of the seats were empty and quite a number of award winners hadn't bothered to turn up. So no, it probably wasn't worth it. If Mark Rylance should also snatch the Tony from him, I'll get really frustrated. Although I loved his acceptance speech.
