Speech
Oh, God. Oh, my God! This has been a very long trip. Mom and
Dad, look where I'm standing. Oh my God. It started with the great
Bob Fosse and an incredible score by Kander Ebb and then Harvey
Weinstein came in with Meryl Poster and they stood by and they believed
and they just stayed with me. And here I am. And, oh my God my mind
is going. It truly is going. A cast that any producer would die
for. A director that was sent from heaven, a blessing. Rob Marshall.
The most incredible, unbelievable, creative and productive staff.
Oh, God. Richard, Renée, Catherine, John, the world, I think
right now. Bob Fosse, yes! He was the first I mentioned. And Queen
Latifah and my executive producers, my executive producers, my executive
producers, please. Neil Meron, Craig Zadan, who worked like dogs
on this. And, God, I'm forgetting someone. I am. Oh, yes! Oh, yes!
I was gonna end it with, I was gonna end it with thank you. I was
gonna end it with one thing I couldn't end it without this.
To my two angels that sit on my shoulder all the time, my dear Mary
Lea and my late partner Robert Fryer. I bless you all. I bless you
all. Thank you.
Special On-line thanks
Rob Marshall, Rob Marshall, Rob Marshall
