I love the Tony Awards for more than just the glittery gay dance numbers. For me, it’s all about the acceptance awards. Mark Rylance gave my favorite and for me, wins Best Acceptance Speech:
Best Starlet Speech goes to Laura Benati
Best Diva speech goes to Patti LuPone
Most Poetic and Rehearsed speech goes to Lin Manuel Miranda
Best Fat Joke during a Speech goes to Stew
Great job on everyone who tried to be interesting with your acceptance. Bravo. I know what everyone is asking. “Jim, what will YOU say or do when you win your Tony?” While Dressed in a head-to-toe diamond tux, I will come accompanied with a giant sheet with all the thank you’s printed legibly, flash it, and use the time to break dance while throwing out vats of glitter, like Rip Taylor.
i agree……kudos & congrats for this….
