I'm sure Holliday was amazing in Bells Are Ringing on broadway, and I don't doubt that she deserved the Tony, or that I might have voted for her even over Andrews.
And yes, My Fair Lady is a comedy, but not like Bells Are Ringing. They are different kinds of comedy requiring different kinds of performances, asking different things from the audience, and trying for different things. But both are wonderful, though yes MFL is more sophisticated and ultimately a much higher quality show if you ask me. |
