I wish the King Kong puppet was hosting.

Me too, but I was disappointed that he didn't stage door.

OMG, how selfish could you be? He is under no obligation to sign at the stage door. He does not owe you anything except giving it his all on stage, which you should be grateful for because I heard his understudy is horrible.

Alex Brightman tweeted that he was rehearsing for the Tony Awards opening number, so it sounds like the opening will likely either be: 1) A medley of all the shows of the season (a la 2010), 2) Beetlejuice's performance is opening the show (a la 2015 with Something Rotten) or 3) James Corden going through all of the Tony nominated shows (a la 2016). Of these options some variation of 3 seems most likely, I highly doubt Alex Brightman is included and not playing Beetlejuice in some capacity.

Last week, one of the Tootsie ensemble members mentioned they had Tony rehearsals that week.
Me: "Can I ask what number you'll be performing?"
Cast member, grinning: "Well, you can ask..."
It was a cute moment.

So I got a new promo that popped up onto my facebook feed earlier and it actually featured not just 1 but 2 clips from Pretty Woman including during the voice over about performances. I mean it featured two clips from Pretty Woman and some shows that are nominated were not even featured at all. So I think might be a sign that Pretty Woman spent the cash for a spot after all.

I know the chances of this are nil, but I'd kill for a Choir Boy reunion. At least a cappella stuff would be cheaper than paying (instrument-playing) musicians?

It seems like a group opening number, maybe involving all the nominees from musicals?

lol I noticed King Kong has 2 performances tomorrow (Friday mat/eve) but no performances on Sunday. Perhaps it's because they need time to transport the big 'ol puppet to Radio CIty?!?

Looks like Be More Chill is not on the Tonys roster to perform. That certainly doesn’t bode well for them in terms of visibility.
