Tony Preview Concert#1

Posted: 5/4/08 at 2:16pm

What does everyone think of the Tony Preview Concert that will featured performances by the 12 eligible musicals from this season? Also, what other musical is ineligible (Grinch is one)? I'm assuming Grease, but I thought it wasn't getting nominations because it sucked. Also, what do you all think each show will perform?

Is the concert only being Broadcast in the NY area? If so, I really don't see why CBS is taking the time to do this. It seems that maybe they are doing it to boost ratings. If so, I would think they might want to make it a primetime special to get people across the country to watch the awards. Just my thoughts.

I looked on my DVR and it's not on there for 5/11/08 at 7:00. Is it just NY?

It is being taped on May 11 but is being aired on June 7 on CBS here in NYC and between May 26 and June 7 on CBS and O&O. You will have to check your local tv listings.

Yes, Grease is going to get nominated.

Edited for error - May 11 not June 11 for taping!

OR WHEN IT WILL BE SHOWN IN WASHINGTON DC? and is there a link to when they will be playing around the country?

"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

Send an e-mail to your station and ask them. That's what I did and they e-mailed me back within hours with the date and time.

You are welcome! My station didn't have anything on its website. I just went to the contact section of the website and e-mailed them.
