My wife loves P!NK, so the Tonys were on in our house Sunday whether I voted or not. I mostly wanted to see what they’d do with Rocky Horror. What I got instead was P!NK opening the show dressed as Peter Pan, spinning in the air over Radio City while singing “I’m Flying,” then hoisting Neil Patrick Harris off the stage with her legs mid-bit before landing the whole thing on a Broadway-sized “Lady Marmalade” with more than 170 theater people behind her. My wife didn’t say “told you,” but she didn’t have to.
The Rocky Horror cast did get their number in, for the record. The show itself went home empty-handed. The fishnets did not deserve that.
