Feh. After seeing it done so beautifully the last two years at the Beacon - and being able to hear everything - I'm not impressed.

Who do you think will host? I'd love to have Jackman back and it would make sense for him to return this year. I also think it would be spectacular if they get Patina to host in leading prayer style.

If nothing else, I could see Patina leading off the opening number! :)

Some questions for anyone who has gone before: How much are the tickets? Are you there for the entire ceremony including the technical awards given out before the televised show? How long does that portion usually last?

We attended the year The Producers swept everything. I think we paid around $250 to sit in the 1st level above the orchestra.
By the way, the year Next To Normal won, two of my kids attended via very cheap seats, maybe $35-$40 or so, that were given out as rush a few days before the event in Times Square.

As an Upper West Sider who hated dealing with the inevitable extra security, street closures (and street fairs) when they were at the Beacon, all I can say is HALLELUJAH BABY!
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Maybe they'll get Rosie to host. After all, she's used to it now right. She did host a fictional Tony Awards for SMASH, right?

"Watching them from home it really don't make no nevermind."
Except even from home the technical problems that were plaguing the telecast the last few years at Radio City (can we ever forget somebody's mic being turned on while they were warming up during the opening number?) were very much less evident once they moved to the Beacon.
And I'm curious as to why Radio City is "where they belong"? Radio City Music Hall has as much of a connection to Broadway as the Beacon. Now if they were putting them somewhere like the New Amsterdam, or any other Broadway house, then I would agree that they are back where they belong.

@AEA AGMA SM, now that you say that about the Amsterdam it would be lovely to see the tonys go to the Amsterdam,which they won't, but that should have been an option

They'll probably never go to an actual Broadway house again because they do want to try to fit as many people as possible in to the ceremony, especially since the size of the producing teams has been rapidly expanding over the years.
Tickets From $59
