All in All


She has won six Tony Awards, more performance wins than any other actor, and is the only person to win in all four acting categories. – Wikipedia


Since Audra McDonald has won

  In every acting category,

Her theatrical day in the sun

  Is here to stay, not transitory;


“It might as well be over and done.”

  (I’m quoting Audra’s jealous cronies),

“Our chances become next to none

  When she’s contending in the Tonys.”
