If you were to plan your own concert of shows and actors who were not given deserving Tony Awards, who would you have perform? Not just ones that should have won, but at least keep them to shows that could have won. It's up to you to choose.
I'll start:
"Make Them Hear You" from Ragtime with Brian Stokes Mitchell: I would do "Wheels of a Dream," but Audra won, thereby making her ineligable.
"All That Jazz" from Chicago with Chita Rivera
What else?

Children Will Listen from Into the Woods (it did lose to Phantom, and I'm not just making things up, rght?)
Anything Carolee sang from Parade.

Posted: 8/6/06 at 8:41pmYes, INTO THE WOODS lost the Best Musical Tony to PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, but it did win Best Score. If that's any consolation.

Toni Collette in THE WILD PARTY.
To this day it remains my favorite ("best" is such a subjective word) performance I've ever seen on stage... closely followed by Audra in MARIE CHRISTINE. And they BOTH lost. As if the Tony Award means anything anyway...

I'd just like to add my two cents to the above post. How the hell did Judy Holiday win that year?
