I just applied to be a Tony Award seat filler. Is anyone familiar with the process? Do they pick you at random? I was not sure since they did not really ask you much. Thanks!
How did you apply?
I would also appreciate that information.
I too would like to know.
My friend did it a few years back, but she knew someone. She also got to sit in the first row for the whole show, and Hugh brought her up on stage and they sang a little song together during a commercial break.
Honestly, the best way to do it is to know someone. There is an application (that I don't believe is available until a little bit closer to the Tonys), but they overbook, so then often have to pare down the list a few days before. I did it last year with two friends and had a blast.
Hey guys!
Can someone PLEASE help with telling me how to apply to become a seat filler! I've been trying to find out for two years now. I know the best way is to know someone, but I'd even pay someone to give me an email address. Thanks for any help! Sorry to sound so desperate.
I would love to do it too. please let me know.

Good Luck
Why in the world would they need seat fillers? Why not bring down the folks who've already paid an arm and a leg to sit in the balconies?
That's how all the award shows do it.

Jersey Girl, did you find that site via a google search, or do you know thats where you apply? I found that site too, but I wasn't sure.
I googled it.
I have heard many shows use the same source for their seatfillers.
Tony awards is listed on their site.
millie: can you tell me how you applied. Thanks!

I am waiting to hear back so anxiously! Every time I get an email I say a little prayer!

Where did you guys send emails to?
So did none of us get accepted or have they not sent out the email?
They still haven't sent out an email. I know a ton of people who still haven't gotten an email.
