THEATER TALK Airs Tonys Wrap-Up This Week

This week, an all-new THEATER TALK features its annual Tony® Awards Wrap-Up plus an AndrewAndrew report from the TONY Red Carpet. Co-hosted by Michael Riedel of the New York Post and producer Susan Haskins, this episode premieres Friday, June 12 (2015) at 1 AM (Saturday morning) on Thirteen/PBS, and repeats in the New York metro area on CUNY TV* Saturday 6/13 at 8:30 PM, Sunday 6/14 at 12:30 PM, and Monday 6/15 at 7:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 7:30 PM.

This year's THEATER TALK "Tony Team" is made up of theater editors Stefanie Cohen of The Wall Street Journal, Paul Wontorek of Broadway.com, and - honored with a special TONY Lifetime Achievement Award this year - press agent Adrian Bryan-Brown. They share their thoughts about the recent ceremony, hosted by Alan Cumming and Kristen Chenoweth, and memories of their first Tony Award telecasts. Bryan-Brown also talks about the pressures and joys of being part of a Broadway marketing team, and recalls one notable incident that disrupted his wedding day.

Also on the program, roving cultural correspondents AndrewAndrew report from this year's Tony Awards' Red Carpet, talking to nominees, (soon-to-be) winners and other stars.
