Behind the scenes – Tony Awards Opening Number

The official Tony Awards youtube account have shared a backstage, behind-the-scenes video of this year’s opening number.

If you have ever worked in the theatre, this video will make you smile with understanding at the crazy juxtaposition between backstage mayhem and a polished performance viewed from the auditorium (or a television set).

(If you’re interested in the behind the scenes working of a major production – this is also for you!)
