It's too bad that this acceptance speech wasn't broadcasted during the telecast. Two wonderful writers and two wonderful women that the public deserved to see and here.

Should have been live on broadcast tv. This was landmark, milestone, unprecendented.

"My new love, Madeleine George... We have something to tell you Lisa" Literally my most favorite moment of all time in an acceptance speech!

Jeanine Tesori deserves a Tony just for having written CAROLINE, OR CHANGE: good for her :)

Also, shout out to Alison Bechdel for giving us her 'family tragicomic' in the first place. So so moving...

Um... why are there so many dislikes?

[@anastasiabeaverhausen8220]

[@AdoVillanueva]

No acknowledgement for Alison Bechdel?
