Best Scenic Design of a Musical - South Pacific

The award for Best Play goes to: August: Osage County. (Again, I typed that in before the announcement was made. I mean, come on.) An army of people pile on the stage.

Mandy Patinkin, sporting an awesome beard, reads a message from Stephen Sondheim, who received a lifetime achievement award from the Tonys. Then he introduces a performance from the musical Sunday in the Park with George. Excellent, of course.

Cut to another "Whoopi in the show" clip from Spring Awakening. More scenes from the real shows and less of these fake setups, please.
