OFFICIAL 2016 TONY AWARDS VIEWING THREAD#1
Posted: 6/12/16 at 5:31pm

The red carpet live-stream has begun online (hosted by Laura Michelle Kelly, Jordan Roth, Karen Olivo, and Alicia L. Quarles), so I figured this thread could be started and condensed to include pre-ceremony viewings as well.

I'm loving the NY1 red carpet coverage.

Donna Karger - "Your show is amazing and I love it so much. Talk about the shootings in Orlando."

Would you guys mind if I were to start a West Coast viewing thread? You know just for those of us who want somebody to watch with when it airs over here.

Nobody will mind, but every time someone wins an award, a new "Congrats to...!!!" Thread will be started.

Frank DiLella seems like a very nice, enthusiastic guy, but he is such a poor interviewer he sorta makes me want to kill myself...

So Alicia and LMK started off strong, but they have been dropping on some of the questions they've been asking.

He's Edward R. Murrow compared to Donna Karger

Thus far, Paul Tazewell and Clint Ramos have won the Costume Design Tonys for their respective work on Hamilton and Eclipsed.

ETA: David Rockwell and David Zinn won Best Scenic Design for She Loves Me and The Humans.

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

The fact that all the commercials are just advertising Hamilton's performance is really pissing me off, honestly. There are NINE other shows performing. I understand that they want to advertise the biggest hit, but seriously, you can't give any of the other shows a second of screen time?

The "Donna Karger NY1 Sh*tshow" did not disappoint as usual.

"I'm seeing the LuPone in Key West later this week. I'm hoping for great vocals and some sort of insane breakdown..." - BenjaminNicholas2

Dr. Jennifer Rinaldi will live on forever. Someone get her a Tony.
