Congratulations to The Tony Award-winning TheaterMakers

By Ken Davenport

Well, it finally happened. Last night, the Davenport clan watched the 74th Annual Tony Awards. It wasn’t a typical Tonys (and maybe that’s a good thing). But it was a TONYS!!!!!!

Congrats to all. Relive moments from my podcast and from the last year on The Producer’s Perspective Live where I was lucky enough to speak with so many of last night’s winners.

And now the new season . . . figuratively and literally . . . begins!
