The 67th Tony Awards officially came to an end.
There was no one-stop show that night. "Boots" and "Les Misérables" each won five trophies and were tied as the biggest winners this year..
Among them, "Boots" won five awards including Best Musical, Best Arrangement, and Best Songwriting; "Les Misérables" won Best Revival of a Musical, Best Actor in a Musical, Five awards including Best Musical Screenplay.
However, the Best Director of a Musical was won by Diane-Paulus, the director of "The Legend of Peppin", which was a minor upset and also proved the fact that there have been many emerging talents in the past year. There are indeed countless excellent works produced, and the quality of the several musicals is indeed equal..
Otherwise, how could the Tony Awards suddenly start dividing the cake??
However, overall, the quality of the awards for "Les Misérables" is still better, and three of the awards are major performances, which once again proves the popularity of this play on Broadway.
Having said that, when the award ceremony ended, whether it was the guests or the media, whether it was the melon-eaters or loyal fans, all the focus was focused on Renly alone, as if... just like a zoo Like the only white whale in the cave, although this description is not appropriate, it is the fact. Everyone came to watch in a hurry.
“Renly! Congratulations! "Hidden in his eyes was a critical look. It turned out that Renly Hall, who made history, was just an ordinary young man with two eyes, a nose and a mouth. There was nothing special about him..
“God, Renly, oh, I love Les Misérables so much! "There was a look deep in his eyes, trying to find any clues in Renly's expression, which would become the subject of conversation after turning around..
“Incredible! Absolutely incredible! But you deserve it." There was perfunctory and coping in his words, and then he began to spy on Renly's next plan and his huge connections on Broadway and Hollywood. Everything in his words hinted at this. Another PR victory.
“How about it? How does it feel? I can't help but tremble just sitting there watching." His tentative words and eyes seemed to treat Renly as a guinea pig, ready to study the true thoughts and feelings of "the first man in history".
“God you did it, you really did it! Congratulations! "After being excited and cheering, they began to actively build friendships and enthusiastically sent out party invitations, just like foreign friends sending giant panda invitations to Chengdu..
“Renly, can I take a picture with you? "Without waiting for Renly's consent, he raised his camera to take a picture, and then posted it on the photo wall, showing off the glory and dignity of this moment to the world. They witnessed history at the scene..
The coldness and alienation in the hustle and bustle is isolating Renly little by little. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, this is not important; what is important is that Renly now seems to have become different.——
Renly doesn't care that everyone who approaches has a purpose, because this is the operating rule of Vanity Fair; what Renly cares about is that everyone who approaches is hidden behind a mask, and he can no longer see anything. In the eyes, those passions and excitement about dreams, performances, and art seem to be slowly disappearing, leaving only a bright light..
In a daze, everything slowly became familiar, as if it was Oscar night in Hollywood, as if it were a high-class party in London, as if it was Deja Vu in Vanity Fair.
He thought that this was Broadway, a unique Broadway, which was different after all. In fact, before the awards were announced tonight, this place was indeed unique; but the awarding of a Tony Award had changed too much. He I'm starting to miss Broadway before tonight..
It’s cold at high places.
At this moment, this sentence is so clear and so ironic.
Surrounded by sights and lights, even Renly himself had the illusion that maybe he was really different. He was no longer the Renly who was crazy for performing, but an era where he opened up a whole new world from above. A trend-setter, his every move can change the direction of the entire industry. Things are no longer pure or simple..
Renly knew that his idea was too ridiculous and unnecessary. He put down his baggage and enjoyed the fun and joy tonight, just like he had done every night after winning a prize. This was enough, and let alcohol become the key to tonight. Protagonist, let go freely, this is the right choice.
But Renly couldn't help but think of Rooney..
After the Oscars, Rooney fled to Seattle in despair, Rooney sat on a street bench in a grand evening dress, Rooney went to Los Angeles and returned to New York for her dream... Only now is he truly Understand that feeling, almost suffocating and depressing.
Renly left the party at Radio City Music Hall. Everyone was celebrating, reveling and forgetting themselves, but no one noticed that Renly, the protagonist, had left..
This is the truest face of Vanity Fair.
Standing on the side of the street, Renly looked around, holding the phone in his palm, but he did not notify Nathan immediately, but quietly felt the cold wind blowing by in the middle of the night, carrying the Hudson River The water vapor still reveals a biting coolness in the late night of June..
Feeling in his pockets, trying to find a cigarette.
But he failed. There was no place to put cigarettes in the pocket of the evening dress. Even the mobile phone was carefully placed in the inner pocket of the jacket, trying not to damage the complete lines of the clothes. At this moment, he could really use it. I smoked a cigarette not because of a specific emotion, but because I couldn't describe my emotions in accurate words..
He looked down at the Tony Award trophy in his hand. If a pedestrian or homeless man passed by at this time, he would be willing to exchange the trophy for a pack of cigarettes..
It's a pity that the whole street is clean and cold, and there is no one in sight..
Turning on the phone, after hesitating for a moment, Renly dialed Rooney's number..
The waiting sound rang for a while, and then Rooney's voice came from the other end. Her breathless voice could be vaguely caught, as if she was rushing over to answer the phone, "...Hey, Renly? I I thought you were at the celebration party now, why did you have time to call me? By the way, congratulations! This is definitely an unexpected surprise!.”
The words were slightly topsy-turvy, but Renly didn't think much about it. Following Rooney's cheerful voice, the smile on his lips couldn't help but rise, and he felt a little more relaxed, "Do you remember the Oscar ceremony the year before last??”
Rooney was stunned for a moment, then remembered, her smile paused for a moment, "Do you want to run away now too?"?”
“No, I won't run away. They are not scary enough for me to run away. Don't forget, I have experienced many battles." Renly joked in a relaxed tone, "But... I can use one now. Friend, where are you now? How about it, do you have time to come out and have a beer??”
“……Sorry, I'm in Boston now. For a movie project, I came here specifically to meet with the producer and director." Rooney sighed with regret, "But, if you don't mind, we can enjoy the same night sky together. Then enjoy a relaxing time with a bottle of beer.”
“Ha, let's wait until you come back." Renly joked lightly, "What I need is a real human being, not an inflatable baby..”
“God, are you comparing me to an inflatable doll? " Rooney exclaimed.
Renly didn't care, "You should talk to Ryan. He will tell you that inflatable dolls are actually alive. What you just said offended many people.".”
“"Inflatable Doll Love", a work starring Ryan Gosling, which is also a work that Renly personally likes very much..
“Um? " Rooney let out a helpless sigh, seeming to be complaining coquettishly..
Renly could even imagine Rooney biting her lower lip and rolling her eyes on the other end of the phone. She smiled, changed the subject, and ended the conversation, "I hope everything goes well with the film project meeting.".”
“Congratulations again on winning the EGOT. I can’t be sure how it feels, but what is certain is that it is absolutely extraordinary.” Rooney also regained her normalcy and said with a smile..
The two of them didn't exchange any more pleasantries and then hung up the phone..
The smile paused at the corner of his mouth and dissipated like smoke. Similarly, Rooney's congratulations and the congratulations from Radio City Music Hall behind him were the same. The sense of alienation and isolation was becoming more and more obvious. He originally thought that Rooney I can relate to it, but he was still disappointed in the end..
But...what can he say??
Rooney's congratulations are a normal reaction. On the night of winning an award, do we still have to express regret for the winner? That's what's really weird, right? Perhaps, his current thoughts are unnecessary worries, just random thoughts immersed in his own world, and unnecessary existence..
Maybe.
He lowered his head and looked at his phone. There were more than fifty text messages in total - this was Renly's personal phone. There weren't many contacts in the address book. As for the external phone, it was left with Nathan. It should be More lively.
Renly would never confirm a text message immediately, let alone reply to a text message immediately. He would usually wait for the number of text messages to accumulate to a certain level. Instead, Matthew couldn't stand it and began to deal with it in a timely manner; but today, Renly hesitated. After a while, I clicked on the inbox early and started to confirm the text messages. By accident,.
After a brief browse, all the familiar names in my impression immediately sent congratulatory messages, even Arthur and Andre were no exception. Obviously, even outsiders can't help but pay attention to it. From a certain perspective said, which also proves the vigor of this news event..
Renly didn't reply.
Just as he was about to exit the inbox again, Renly saw the text message sent by Matthew..
“How are you?”
Watching the text message quietly, hesitating for a moment, Renly replied with a text message. Just after closing the phone screen, Matthew's reply arrived. Renly stared at the phone screen in his hand seriously, his nose felt slightly sore. But the smile at the corner of his mouth couldn't help but slightly rise..
He is not alone after all.
