I ARRIVED AT THE THEATRE AT 3;00 PM AND RECEIVED A FREE TICKET FOR THE 7;00 PM CEREMONY. THERE WERE ALOT OF PEOPLE AND I BELIEVE EVERYONE GOT IN, BECAUSE THERE WERE A FEW ROWS EMPTY IN THE REAR MEZZANINE WHEN THE CEREMONY BEGAN. INVITED GUESTS HAD RED PASSES AND SAT IN THE ORCHESTRA. THE PUBLIC WERE GIVEN YELLOW PASSES FOR THE FRONT AND REAR MEZZANINE. THE SHOW LASTED TWO HOURS. WE WERE ENTERTAINED BY CAROL CHANNING, NATHAN LANE, MATTHEW BRODERICK, BARBARA COOK, AUDRA MCDONALD, FRANK LANGELLA, MARIN MAZZIE,MARK JACOBY,ARTHUR MILLER,HAROLD PRINCE, BRIAN STOKES MILLER,WHOOPI GOLDBERG,SUTTON FOSTER,JULES FEIFFER, BRENT BARRETT, VICTOR GARBER,MALCOLM GETS, ANDY ROONEY, ANTHONY RAPP,MARGE CHAMPION, LIZ CALLAWAY, LA CHANZE, KEVIN CHAMBERLIN, JAN MAXWELL, CADY HUFFMAN,STEPHEN BOGARDUS, JASON DANIELEY, AND THE GREAT KITTY CARLISLE HART,WHO ALSO SANG A SONG TO LIFE. WE EVEN GOT TO MEET THE WORLD FAMOUS NINA. AL HIRSCHFELDS' DAUGHTER. IT WAS ONE OF THOSE GREAT EVENINGS HONORING THR NEW YORK THEATRE COMMUNITY AND I WAS PART OF IT.
