Last night, we celebrated TV’s best with The 73rd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. What an evening it was because many of Theater’s best have gone on to win a lot of Awards including…..
The acclaimed Disney+ filmed proshot of Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s hottest ticket Hamilton taking home top honor for OUTSTANDING VARIETY SPECIAL (PRE-RECORDED). Members of the original cast went up on stage to accept the Award with Renee Elise Goldsberry (who won a Tony for her performance as “Angelica Schyler”) giving a powerful emotional speech reflecting within this past year. She said…..
“This award represents the synergy between the medium of television and theater, what a gift we can be to each other, what a gift you gave to us last year, when we were dark and dispersed, TV created the platform to come together to put on a show. On behalf of Lin-Manuel Miranda and all of the companys off-Broadway and on, we say ‘look around,’ the curtains are going back up and the lights are going back on.”
Other winners included….
3 time Olivier Award nominee Hannah Waddingham (Broadway and West End’s Spamalot along with The Wizard of Oz) took home a OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY Award for her performance on Ted Lasso
