I don't recall seeing any of them. Do they even go to the Tonys nowadays? I miss them as presenters.
Tony Awards - where was Channing, Chita, Tune, Liza, Stritch, etc.

Doesn't Stritch refuse to go to the Tonys after they cut her off?

The producers obviously thought that the Theatre loving audience would rather see B-listed movie stars and people I've never heard of, than Legends of the Broadway Stage.
Who the hell was that woman who introduced EVITA???
And Tyler Perry???

I didn't know who she was. Still don't.
Tyler's rich. Potential investor. Nuff said.

Thank god Patti was in the opening number to 'represent'. It did seem like the Broadway stars were ignored.
Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

To be fair, we did get Bernadette (and Patti). Sure I want to see the legends of yesterday, and a better mix would probably have been more interesting, but with few exceptions, these are the stars of today and tomorrow, and it is all about ratings, right?

Patti made a surprise entrance and sung with a lawnmower!!
Bernadette gave a speech in a commercial break, clapped awkwardly to Godspell and introduced Danny when she (or Jan) should have been the ones being introduced to perform. I don't think it counts :P.

This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Well their current strategy for getting ratings really seems to be paying off- oh wait...

Where was style? Where was skill? Where was forethought?
Where was discretion of the heart. Where was passion for the art? Where was craft?

Stockard was there, Carol was not. Please be clear when asking where was Channing?
Bernadette seemed like she was on pills-I enjoyed her half clap during Godspell.
I have no idea who that woman was who intro'd Evita.

There's just no way that Bernadette Peters was going to be performing the FOLLIES presentation, not without the nomination and not having left the show - and given the context, I don't think it's reasonable to have expected her to. Watching her introduce the FOLLIES clip was awkward enough, especially when she started to get teary. I felt bad for her in those few moments.

Also, hasn't Liza Minnelli made it clear that she's not going anywhere near END OF THE RAINBOW, which everyone knew would be featured to some extent at the ceremony?

Carol Channing now lives in CA. I think it's unrealistic to think a 91 year old woman should fly across the continent to make a cameo appearance on an awards show.

Who the hell was that woman who introduced EVITA???
The woman who presented is Cote de Pablo, one of the stars of NCIS.
It's a big hit for CBS and most weeks, the number one show on TV. Which doesn't mean she has anything to do with Broadway.
But per Wiki, Senorita de Pablo was in The Fantasticks at Carnegie-Mellon.
