I bought a ticket to attend my first Tony Awards on 6/7/09. The event is black-tie, but I'm wondering if the dress code can be more lax for us peons sitting in the third mezzanine? Is a tuxedo required or can I get away with a dark suit?
According to my invite, it says that "FORMAL ATTIRE IS REQUIRED." But I would think that a dark suit would suffice in the upper decks. But I don't make the rules.
