Will there be a rap opening number?

Angela Bassett better do the thing!

She can sing, act, dance and isn’t afraid to laugh at herself. Perfect host and such a fun venue. Love.

This will have them tuning in by the tens.

The Tony Awards will NEVER appeal to a mass audience. Heck, small numbers watch the far more accessible Oscars. People simply aren't interested in things they have no connection to. Even people that see one or two shows a year don't have a vested interest. The Oscars this year (while up from the previous 2 years) was still ranked as the 3rd lowest viewing.
Can't tell you how many negative comments I've seen about Hollywood awarding Hollywood.

She is talented but I would have preferred someone who has never done it before.

One time was 30 times too many. She’s becoming the next James Corden. Time to put her on the shelf for a bit.

Corden theoretically can bring in his audience, and is a face of the network. He a non-theater person lending cred to theater world. DeBose is...not that.
I take no position re her career trajectory, but does anyone think shes good at this? Its not that shes hosting stuff too much, its that shes hosted it more than once, and never well.

Bumping this thread. Ariana did a fantastic job hosting this year.
