Broadway's biggest night of celebration and accolades once again aired last Sunday on CBS when the biggest stars of the Great White Way gathered at New York City's Radio City Music Hall for a great live show and awarding of the years' biggest and best on the stage.
The night was hosted by Broadway, film, and TV stars Alan Cumming and Kristin Chenoweth, who brought Broadway home to the TV screens with 11 musical performances, and 24 awards handed out (although some were not broadcasted as they were given during commercial breaks). It was a night of music, family, and all the best theatrical performances that Broadway has to offer.
The biggest winner of the night was The Curious Incident of the Dog at Night-Time, which won the award for Best Play. The production was originally staged in London where it already won several Olivier Awards. Based on the novel by Mark Haddon, the Curious Incident is about a teenage boy with Asperger's Syndrome who is trying to track down a dog's killer.
