The cast of [title of show], the original musical that will open on Broadway at the Lyceum Theatre in July, will host the 53rd Annual Drama Desk Awards on Sunday, May 18, at 9:00 PM, it was announced by Robert R. Blume, Executive Producer of the awards ceremony, and William Wolf, President of the Drama Desk.
The awards ceremony will be held in the F.H. LaGuardia Concert Hall at Lincoln Center. It will be webcast live by TheaterMania.com (www.theatermania.com), the nation’s leading online source for theater information and tickets. It is also expected to be broadcast live in its entirety on satellite radio’s XM - 28 On Broadway.
“We are delighted that the five member cast of [title of show] will be hosting this year,” said Blume. “They are a multi-talented group of performers whose zany sense of humor and sharp wit will add a new dimension to the awards ceremony. An Off-Broadway success in 2006, this clever musical will come to Broadway this year in July. Having the cast of [title of show] as host, will make for a fresh and unique program.”

Posted: 4/22/08 at 2:02pmThis is going to be one of the best Drama Desk broadcasts ever. Even if awards don't go well, they'll be amazing.

I second splendoris.
Enough of this "Let's bring TV and Movie stars on to the Tony Award Show to increase the audience" crap.
Bring [tos] to the Tonys to increase the FUN!

Thank God I won't be going to the Drama Desk Awards. I'm sure they'll be all cutely self-referential about cutely hosting an awards show as they are about cutely writing a cute self-referential musical.
The CUTENESS never ends!!

AHHH, I love this news so much that it's pathetic! They haven't even started previews yet and they're already hosting or appearing in every Broadway event. I love this! I second the comment about them really being a "part of it all" now. [tos] is loved. :)
Honestly, how hysterical is this broadcast going to be? I can't even imagine.

Could [tos] hosting beat the rant from that guy at intermission last year?
I'd die if they brought Mindy with them.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
