He'll get Mercury poisoning a quarter way through the show.

I hope they get Kristin Chenoweth and/or Neil Patrick Harris.

Neil Patrick Harris is an excellent choice. He did well hosting the TV LAND AWARDS.

If they already have a host, it should be announced tomorrow with the nominations.

I'd take either Kristin or NPH. Of course, I'd take NPH any day of the week, but hosting the Tonys wouldn't be so bad either. :)

I would love it to be NPH.


A work of art is an invitation to love.

NPH and the Tony awards? Now that would be an amazing night.


If people have split views about your work, I think it's flattering. I'd rather have them feel something about it than dismiss it.

I vote for Angela!

Would be great to have Hugh Jackman host again. He's got the #1 movie in America right now, and he's a huge star. And, it would be nice to remind people that he started in musical theatre.

NPH on one side. DHP on the other side. Julie White in the center. That's an entertaining trio.

Remember Julie White and Michael Cerveris' back and forths during the pre-show last year?

If they were Hollywood names, they would be the perfect hosts.

Well considering that Hugh Jackman is trying to come back to Broadway, it would not surprise me if he hosted.

Also, I may be the only one, but I didn't mind Whoopi last year.

I liked Whoopi better as an Oscar host.

Will Ferrell should host, AS George W. :P

That would be obnoxious and pointless.

Ferrel's "George W. Bush" persona isn't even THAT good... honestly.

And Whoopi is okay -- too bland for me.

I love NPH but why him, specifically? He's done nothing big with Broadway recently and he's not a huge name. I don't see that happening.

Will they even have a host this year?
