Denise and Nick take over the lead, as Mark and I (in our race for last place) both missed that one.
Back from the break - ah, a classic Tony moment. Carol Channing rapping? Now there's something you don't see every day.
John Lithgow presents an award for Best Direction for a Musical. Does every presenter have to mention how many Tonys they've won? (I know, they're joking... or are they?) The winner: Bartlett Sher, South Pacific. He gives a nice calm acceptance speech - pep up, you just won!
Hey, there's Jack Klugman! He looks great! He introduces a performance from Gypsy, a show he performed in back in 1960. Patti LuPone shows why she's already a legend on Broadway - and she gets a standing ovation!
Cut to a scene from Phantom of the Opera, with Whoopi standing in for the female lead - the Phantom runs for it. Funny.
Break!
