I rarely miss a play and was blown away by "August" last summer. I watched the Tonys and felt like I had won! Happy congratulations on the impressive collection of awards this play has so rightly earned. Really looking forward to "Superior Donuts" even more so now!

Is that short for Anthony's?? I'll speak collectively when I say, "We, those of us who were given the sublime theatrical experience back in August, 2007 - how appropriate a month to witness the miracle of Great Art, arising from the rehearsal halls at North and Halsted - will jot it down in our where were you's book of memories and are proud to have been members of the audience and share in the spirit of something special happening at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre!" Back to first person: My only sadness lies in the fact it will even be more futile, auditioning for the summer school program when I seem to be destined to sit in the audience instead of act on the stage. Sigh. But thank you, for such a wonderful evening of Tony watching! Congratulations! Now - go Cubs.....that would top the year off with a great big cherry. Congratulations seems not to be enough of a word, to applaude my praise for the Steppenwolfians in NY, living their passion and winning - Tony’s. Is that short for Anthony’s??
