I bet they all do the same songs that are always done. Whoever dreamed up this years theme obviously spent moments on it.

I'll make a bet Helen Morse sings Send in the Clowns

Well considering Sydney won't be having their Hats Off until March next year we better get someone good - most likely the WWRY and quite possibly the Producers cast will be involved <g>

Of course if the Carrolls put in an appearance then I wouldn't mind

The first thing Sally said when she saw that "Nadine will be happy." Oh, and we were intending to go and make you incredibly jealous that you didn't come, but other news rather dampened that.

Yeah

After seeing Helen in A Little Night Music a few years back, it was pretty much a done deal in terms of who would sing it

Hehe I'm good that way, can't say I don't pay attention to what people post here

My personal Hats Off highlights, without putting EVERYTHING so sorry if I left off something someone else thought was absolutely the cats whiskers

Not A Day Goes By - Queenie Van De Zandt

I'll say it again, what a voice

And what a song! Just perfect for her.

One More Kiss - Helen Noonan, Trisha Crowe

Of course Trisha's song has to figure on the list

Wasn't so keen on Helen Noonan, Trisha definitely outsung her by leagues. And loved her outfit as well! Very pretty.

The Little Things You Do Together - Ian Stenlake, Rachael Beck

Just a delight, and my favourite moment of the night. I was laughing so hard I have no idea of half they said, but the other half I did hear was great! Aww.

Putting It Together - Members of the cast of Eureka

Irene! Classic. Brilliant number, again very funny and too much fun to be had.

Marry Me a Little - Simon Gleeson

*sighs* aww

I didn't know many Sondheim songs before last night, but I knew and liked this one. Now I love it and can't bear to think of anyone but Simon singing it.

Agony - Alex Rathgeber, Matthew Robinson

Because Julia would kill me if I left it off

But seriously - the Act 2 version was just brilliant.

Unworthy Of Your Love - Kaye Tuckerman, Michael Cormick

Michael, what a voice. Shivers.

Broadway Baby - Amanda Muggleton

Gotta love Amanda, she really got into the song and it was superb. The perfect number for her.

All I Need Is The Girl - Andrew Koblar

Only ever so slightly behind Ian and Rachael's number (I know! He got bumped down!) - absolutely a joy to watch! This guy is a marvel to listen to as well as to look at his feet. When he standed dancing I was all aww, I wanna dance with him! Fun! And then he goes and does the step I'm having trouble with, like half a dozen times in a row. Grr

It was a fun night, but it really came at a bad time, because I was a bit too down after Eureka-news to really enjoy myself 100%. Although on retrospect, now my head has cleared a little (getting out of late shift on Eureka close day does have at least 99% to do with that!), I can remember many parts fondly. And also with embarrassment, at letting out a huge whoop the very second Eureka was mentioned

Something's very wrong. I didn't get my way!

Hey, at least you didn't go and clap when they made that dig at the critics in Putting it Together

And I think with all the various fan clubs scattered through the theatre, we were allowed to be very appreciative.

Now, we know that jackjackjack was there, so where are his comments?
