The theatrical critics have done an exhaustive job critiquing the play and have been impressed. The folks who give out the Tony Awards nominated the play for 3 awards and Jesse Mueller, who played Carole King, won a Tony for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role. An award I believe she deserved. "Beautiful" was also nominated for Best... Read More |

Legislation allowing Philadelphia to impose a sales tax on cigarettes to help fund public schools there has cleared its most difficult hurdle.
