Since the red carpet coverage from the Tony Awards website begins in about 40 minutes, I decided to make a thread to discuss the evening in.
Enjoy!

Posted: 6/13/10 at 6:33pmWhy is the NY1 coverage always so awkward? The hosts always seem like they've never given a live interview before.

Posted: 6/13/10 at 6:39pmAgree with scarlett johansson, best thing about the tony's are the performances from these shows, wish we could get more editions of Broadway's Lost Treasures on DVD. Would love to own the clips from Phantom, Scarlet Pimpernel, Wicked, Rocky Horror, among others..

"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000
