2023 Tony Predictions
Listen now
Description
As usual for our final episode this season, we’re diving into the Tony Awards!  We try to predict all 26 categories, while also giving our picks for what we would choose to award, and we get a chance to discuss plays and revivals which we don’t cover in our regular season episodes.  So hit play and we’ll tell you who to watch out for on Sunday night! Because this is a long episode, there are chapter markers for you to use (assuming your podcast player supports them). -- Since the time of recording, a few more sites have come out with their Tony predictions, including Time Out New York and the New York Times survey of Tony voters (turns out they’re able to poll about a fifth of the voters!). The designer that Cindy was talking about in regards to the & Juliet costumes was Vivienne Westwood, whose style can be seen in this TikTok video. To get a sense of the infamous “doors” tap number from Some Like It Hot, check out this video, which also shows some of the tech going on behind the scenes. Sean Hayes is actually a classically trained pianist, and you can check out a sample of him playing Rhapsody in Blue at a Ham4Ham. -- Music/audio featured in this episode: The Ballad of Sweeney Todd from Sweeney Todd Light from New York, New York Since U Been Gone from & Juliet Welcome to Pondicherry Zoo from Life of Pi Vamp! from Some Like It Hot Corn (Reprise) from Shucked This Is Not Over Yet from Parade Better from Kimberly Akimbo A scene from Leopoldstadt (featuring Brandon Uranowitz) It Takes Two from Into the Woods I'm Fine by Self Esteem for Prima Facie Camelot from Camelot This Time from Kimberly Akimbo -- Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @BottomlessBway, our blog at https://bottomlessbway.home.blog/, or email us at [email protected]! You can also leave feedback in this 30-second survey.
