"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"

Diva - I know where those are from 
I pondered posting some, but don't want to ruin anything.
For such a dull season, this is going to be one EXCITING ceremony!
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 6/11/10 at 7:52pmI believe the set was introduced in 2003 or 2004?

Posted: 6/11/10 at 11:09pmThey kept showing what seemed to be live footage of a rehearsal on the CNN jumbo-tron in Times Square. I felt awful for Sean Hayes, who was probably unaware that thousands of folks were watching him prepare.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Here's to hoping that someone hits a button by mistake on Sunday letting us see the dress rehearsal again. I loved seeing it in 2008.
I must be a bitch to move set back & forth all weekend.

Ugh.. not the same set again!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish they would go back to doing the Tony's at a real Broadway house. There was a warmth and energy that radiated in those telecasts.
HUSSY POWER!

I swear I thought this was Victoria Clark at first glance.
