The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 1361: Historical moment
The 67th Tony Awards ceremony began. Neil Patrick Harris served as the host of the party for the third consecutive year. This versatile actor has won the Emmy Award and the Tony Award, and has already passed his own Performance has won a place in the fierce competition in Hollywood.
But tonight, Neal was under tremendous pressure, because the wonderful hosts over the past two years have pushed everyone’s expectations to a whole new level. It has never been easy to introduce the old and bring forth the new; also because this year’s awards ceremony maintains it. Too much attention and pressure are really unbearable.
"I regret it." During the opening performance, Neal said frankly and jokingly, "When I saw the nomination list, I regretted it. God, what did I do wrong? I promise, I will. I will do my best to return it, but this time, just this time, please make sure to let me go through it safely, but the situation on the red carpet today directly proves that I still think too much."
The exaggerated expression made the audience laugh, "I know that no matter how I behave tonight, the focus is destined not to stay on me. Obviously, I got myself into a predicament, but...I Still decided to try and see, would you like to follow me..."
At a turning point, Neil started humming along the way, like "Song in the Rain", jumping with light steps, without any embarrassment or jerky, he cut into the aria of "Boots Demon", officially unveiling today's opening The performance, instantly, the atmosphere of the Radio City Music Hall began to lively.
Neil's skill is evident.
But, as Neil said, all the focus of tonight is not on him, not even in the competition for a lot of awards. Even the 13 nominations of the "Boot Demon Girl" are willing to be inferior. All the focus of everyone is Focused on the best actor in a musical, or more accurately, on Lan Li.
No one can compare it.
After the opening of the awards ceremony, the audience was a little absent-minded, noisy, and lacking in enthusiasm, as if there was always a little chemical reaction missing, and the 90-minute song and dance performance also seemed boring and powerless.
In the interview after the awards ceremony, Neal also reluctantly said, "I tried my best."
After that, Neal officially resigned, stating that the space would not continue to serve as the host. As for the reason, whether it was because of the fatigue after taking charge of the host microphone for three consecutive years, or because the performance response that night was far lower than expected, it is not known. Maybe it's both.
This situation continued until Charlotte Martin appeared on the stage, and the dull atmosphere of almost the whole audience finally became active, and the turbulent commotion could not continue to boil.
According to the guest list announced before the award ceremony, Charlotte Martin, the current chairman of the Broadway League, served as the guest of honor for the best actor in a musical, because last year’s winner Steve-Kazee (steve-kazee) Injured and unable to be present, he temporarily took over the award-giving position.
No words or reminders were needed. All the guests in the audience sat upright and energized. The new look was completely different from the previous ones. The concentration and curiosity gradually gathered showed the cheer of the audience. In excellent condition.
Prior to this, even if it was "Les Miserables" or "Boots Demon Girl" won the awards, the enthusiasm could not be felt. The tension and explosive force immediately began to surge, without even hearing cheers or applause, the atmosphere of the scene was already there. Rejuvenate.
This is the real highlight.
Charlotte, who has seen countless winds and waves in his career, can't help but feel a little nervous, "Wow, who can tell me what happened? Why is everyone looking at me with such support and love?"
A joke made all the audience laugh in an instant, as if it didn’t take any effort at all; in stark contrast is the previous host, Neil, who could not relieve the atmosphere with all his strength, is now standing on the side. Taiwan, helplessly spread his hands and said:
I am also desperate!
Charlotte raised the envelope in his hand, and he could clearly feel that all the eyes of the audience fell on it, heavy.
Charlotte's fingers contracted unconsciously, her slightly tight muscles made her laugh dumbly and joked, "As usual, I like to announce the results directly. This is Tony, not Oscar."
The banter between words made the scene laugh again. Obviously, Broadway's attitude towards Hollywood is always with a trace of resistance and rejection, even disdain and contempt. Although it is not intended, the artist's aloofness is relieved.
"But just now in the background, everyone explained to me that this is an important task to reveal historical moments. Maybe I should say something and create some suspense." Charlotte said honestly, but inadvertently outlined the entire industry. The scene of internal tension and boiling, "I thought, maybe I should say something."
"In the past year, Broadway has once again ushered in the long-lost glory. The'Piping True Story' and'Les Miserables' once again attracted audiences to re-enter the theater; Tom Hanks and Lanly Hall also proved the drama actors again The appeal to loyal fans; of course, there are original masterpieces such as "Boots Demon" and "Lucky Man" that prove that our creation is still alive. This is a year worth celebrating."
Charlotte was solemnly expressing his senior’s comments, rigid and boring, and then suddenly stopped, watching the audience carefully, letting the silence spread a little, and then speaking again, "You all thought I would mention that. It's something, right?" Then he cocked his mouth triumphantly. The old naughty behavior made everyone helpless and funny.
"Well, I still have to mention that this is my task today, there is no way." Charlotte spread both hands and hands, "In the past year, Broadway has once again seen a number of outstanding actors, especially musical actors, this year None of the five nominees who won the best actor in a musical has won a Tony Award, which means that whoever wins tonight will write his own history. Now, the answer is in my hands."
"Before the opening, I chatted for a while with Lan Li, who won the Tony Award nomination for the first time..." Before the words could be finished, the scene thought of a few sparse whistles and interrupted. Charlotte's words also made the audience laugh collectively. Charlotte nodded meaningfully, "So, this is what you want? Then, the content of our conversation is probably going to disappoint you."
"I talked to Lanly about Broadway and London's West End performance experience. He thought it was a learning process. He admired the performance of Billy Potter and Stark Sanders among the'Boots' A performance, such a performance, can’t feel the shock on the movie screen.” Charlotte’s words immediately evoked applause from the audience. They are all unwavering supporters of Broadway, and they still want to watch it after all. The drama can have a more long-term exhibition.
Charlotte also gave applause to the blue gift under the stage, "I sincerely hope that through many wonderful works this year, people can appreciate the charm of drama and the charm of performance, and more young actors can join us. Ranks."
Hey, what does this sentence imply? Does it imply the hope of attracting more young actors and young audiences through the blue gift?
But before the audience had time to think deeply, Charlotte went on to say, "Tom, I'm not targeting you."
The young actor, Tom Hanks, who apparently won the nomination tonight, is no longer young.
Tom also raised his hands very cooperatively to express his protest, which once again stirred up the atmosphere.
Charlotte smiled and raised his hands and pressed down, "I know I know, I have been delayed for three full minutes, the Tony Award is about to become a Golden Globe Award, obviously everyone has begun to be impatient. , Then, I will speed up the progress now, let us reveal the answer together."
The easy jokes kept the Radio City Music Hall happy. It's not that Neil's host is not good enough, but that Charlotte holds the trump card tonight.
To be honest, this is indeed a blow to the host.
Charlotte took a deep breath, "Let’s give applause to the five nominees tonight~lightnovelpub.net~Billy Potter of Boots, Bertie of Matilda- Cavill, Sandino Fontana of "Rogers and Cinderella of Hammerstein", Stark Sanders of "Boots", and Lanly Hall of "Les Miserables". "
Every time a name is spoken, Charlotte pauses for a while, and all the audience applauds politely. When the last name is spoken, the applause rises to the next level, which truly demonstrates a rare occasion. See the excitement and excitement.
Charlotte did not continue to create suspense, because there was no need at all, the tension in the room had reached its extreme, the hot and turbulent heat wave was almost suffocating, and it was too nervous to breathe.
"At the 67th Tony Awards, the winner of the best actor in a musical is..." Charlotte opened the envelope in her hand.
Charlotte's movements were straightforward, without hesitation or shaking.
The whole audience stared with breathlessly, but they were so nervous that even the heartbeat almost disappeared.
Throughout the scene, the tension to the point of selflessness firmly grasped everyone's heart, contracted, and then contracted. The huge pressure caused a roar on the ears, but the specific source and source were not clear. , Totally forgetting me.
Billy Porter tensed up, Bertie Cavill kept swallowing saliva, Sandino Fontana was pulling his collar trying to breathe some fresh air, Stark Sanders was also stiff. Can't move on the seat.
No one can be an exception, especially nominees.
This time, Lan Li couldn't be immune.
