Though I didn’t watch, I’ve been hearing buzz about this year’s Tony awards. Of particular note was the opening number which had theater friends leaping with joy. I hold these particular actor/dancer/director/production friends in high regard, so I was sure there was a good reason for all the joyful posting. A couple of weeks later, I have now finally gotten around to seeing what all the fuss was about. My theater geeks did not exaggerate.
Get a load of Ariana DeBose, darling of stage (Hamilton, A Bronx Tale, and Summer: The Donna Summer Musical) and screen (West Side Story, The Prom, Schmigadoon!), flinging herself around the United Palace Theater with a company of exceptional dancers.
After watching that stellar performance, I of course had to go looking for the rest. They are below, and I’ve added more than a few Broadway shows to my must-see list!

Lots of energy…goodness. I’ll come back for the rest later.
