I have so many questions. Are they doing "Hello!" because it's the most recognizable? "I Believe"? A medley? 

Honestly with this season's musicals being kind of all over the place quality-wise, a polished BOM number could be one of the best things on the broadcast.

I want Hasa Diga Eebowai! 

Just remembering you've had an "and" When you're back to "or" Makes the "or" mean more than it did before

"Hello" is what they opened the Tony award ceremony with many years ago, so I bet they do it again 15 years later.

Almost certainly a medley like Hamilton did for their anniversary. If you have Nikki M. James there you can't just do Hello or I Believe.

Nah. I really doubt they open the show with it - they've never used these "anniversary" performances to open a Tonys telecast. And like was said above, no way they just do "Hello," it'll be a medley I can almost guarantee.

Lion King 10th Anniversary performance opened the Tonys in 2008.

They’re doing “Hello” with the gimmick being Rannells and Gad reprising their original spots in the number and the rest of the original cast making their reveals in the spots regularly done by the ensemble Elders.

OMG yes, as a giant screw you to CBS (which is still the home of the TONY Awards and I hope they dont renew their contract given the Ellison merger and the Colbert cancellation)

This is ... not what they are doing. 

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.
