Tony Awards Party Food Ideas

A friend and I are throwing a Tony Awards party on Sunday night and are trying to brainstorm food ideas that relate to the nominees/shows from this season. Last year we had Pirates Booty for Peter and the Starcatcher, Chinese Food for The Lyons, Pickles for Newsies, etc so ideas can be literal words or lyrics or more in the spirit of the show.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Tony Awards Party Food Ideas

Well I can tell you that I personally am doing the following:

-I have a local bakery in my town making me "Kinky Boots" cookies.
-I've putting fedoras out and filling them with chips, crackers, etc and stacking up books to put plates, napkins, etc on. (Matilda)
-I'm doing "Pom-Pom Poppers" for "Bring It On". Jalapeno poppers using red/green/yellow peppers so the colors refer back to the show.
-For "Cinderella" I'm doing a pumpkin muffin bite.
-For "Pippin" I'm dishing out some purple cotton candy figured it went with the circus theme.

Honestly, it's going to be junk food and alcohol at my place :).

My friend and I always like to think up food named after the shows (like Legally Blondies and Spring Awakening Rolls in 2007). Here's some of what we have for this year:

The Mystery of Edemame Drood
Golden (Boy) Oreos
Annie-mal Crackers
Hands on a Hamburger
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woo(pie Pies)?

And some drinks:
Vodka and Soda and Mango, it's Spiked (sparkling mango juice with vodka)
Bring it (bourb)On (straight bourbon)

I actually have a Bruce Bogtrotter's Chocolate Cake recipe lying around here somewhere that I copied out of the Roald Dahl Revolting Recipes cookbook...

Pippin apples, if you can find 'em. :) (I second the circus-themed food if not.)

Pumpkin something for Cinderella.

And yes - of course chocolate cake for Matilda!!
