On BroadwayRadio's third annual Tony Omnibus episode, we look to fill in some of the gaps that have popped up in the theatre community's coverage of the award season. So often our focus during this five-week buildup to Sunday night's ceremony is on the performers and the writers who are front and center during this process. However, today, we are talking to two Tony nominees whose impact on their shows is no less important, despite the fact that they aren't the people getting the glossy stories in the New York and theatre media. We also talk to a journalist who brings important context to the New York theatre community.

Solo quedan diez dias para la septuagesima segunda edicion de los Premios Tony, el maximo galardon estadounidense al teatro, en una gala que se celebrara en el Radio City Music Hall presentada por Sara Bareilles y Josh Groban. Vivimos un año en que la television y el cine estaran muy presentes, ya que de los cuatro nominados a mejor musical, tres adaptan peliculas y uno una serie de television. MEAN GIRLS y SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS se han llevado la friolera de 12 nominaciones cada una, mientras que THE BANDS VISIT tiene 11. FROZEN, en cambio, tan solo tiene 3, pero aun asi ha conseguido entrar en la categoria mas codiciada.

The North American Tour of The Band's Visit will launch in Providence, Rhode Island in June 2019. Exact dates and additional cities will be announced at a later date. The show's producers also announced today that a new block of tickets for The Band's Visit are now on sale through Sunday, February 17, 2019.
