New Tony Category#1

I would like to propose a new Tony category - Best Staged Number from a New Musical. I would then award the first Tony in that category in retrospect to Let's Take A Glass Together from Grand Hotel. Feel free to suggest your own candidates.

While you're at it, why don't you add Best Scene, Best Monologue, Best Dance Break, Best Solo, Best Duet, and Best Cross Downstage Left?

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

And Jordan, who would have won Best Kiss last year? Raul and Jessica Phillips?

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

That was a really hot kiss, no doubt. But I would have given it to Rosemary Harris & Carla Gugino in ROAD TO MECCA.

But seriously, isn't there a Best Kiss category at the MTV Movie Awards? If they can have it why can't the Tonys?

Edit: I would have given Road to Mecca best same-sex kiss, but Raul gets best hetero kiss.

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!
