Any word on the 2022 broadcast yet?
I don’t think it will screen. Nobody has it scheduled.
I have a few VHS’s of the Tony Awards taped, when ABC used to play them on a Sunday afternoon in the 90’s. One of the year’s was when ‘The Who’s Tommy’ and ‘Kiss of the Spiderwoman – the musical’ swept the awards. So excited for this on Monday. Yippee!
I’ve seen the films.
Irrelevant? How is it irrelevant? Obviously you’re not a musical theatre fan, this is actually great news for the many thousands of people that are.
Utterly irrelevant show to an Australian audience-and yet no Emmy broadcast for a general audience here!
I think you will find there are more than a few fans of Broadway shows. I wasn’t very familiar with Hamilton or Book of Mormon until I saw them on the Tony Awards, then both played here (including one on Disney+). I always encourage people to comment from their own viewing experience and not to speak for others…
As virtually no Australians are in a position to visit New York City and see the actual shows with their original casts, sets etc, it can’t be denied that the awards have little relevance for the vast majority-for TV or films one gets to see what the Yanks and others do…
Now you’re just being silly. Broadways shows run for years. Clearly others are indicating they enjoy being able to watch them. Move on thanks.
