Me & Mom: Recently we had the opportunity to attend the Theater World Awards. These awards are given for outstanding Broadway or Off Broadway debut performances. The awards took place at the Imperial Theater in New York City on June 5, 2017. Awards were given to the following people:
Carlo Albin who is currently appearing in Sweat.
Josh Groban who is currently appearing in Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812
Lucas Hedges who appeared in Yen.
Raymond Lee who appeared in Vietgone.
Denee Benton who is currently appearing in Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812
Jon Jon Briones who is currently appearing in Miss Saigon.
Eva Noblezada who is currently appearing in Miss Saigon.
Jeremy Secomb who appeared in Sweeney Todd.
Barrett Doss who is currently appearing in Groundhog Day.
Cobie Smulders who is currently appearing in Present Laughter.
Amber Gray who is currently appearing in Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812.
Christy Altomare who is currently appearing in Anastasia.
Most of the awards were presented by people who had previously won a Theater World Award. Most of them had worked with the person they were presenting the awards to so they were able to speak about them a little. That was a nice touch. Since the awards were not televised, people didn't have to worry about being played off the stage. That was a nice touch too. The speeches were heartfelt and not very long anyway. It was a fun evening, and we would definitely go again if we had the chance.

And that's our view. Tune in tomorrow for Tips for Tuesday.
