I was thinking about this last night when History Boys won 6 awards. (the most this season)

What other Plays have won the most Tonys at the awards?

They didn't focus enough on plays for me.

Amadeus was the top award winner back in 1981 with 5 (more than Woman of the Year with 4).

I think it happened at least one other time, but I don't have time right now to look it up.

I wish they had showed more clips from the plays. Shining City sounds really interesting.

Thanks Margo I knew you would know.

What happened to how they used to show scenes from the nominated plays? That was so wonderful. I wish they would do it again. Alas, I know they won't.
