6 Tips To Make Your Tony Party A Show Stopper

Since 1947, The Tony Awards have been presented to celebrate excellence in theatre. And has a Broadway nerd since 1997, it is one of my favorite events of the year. You can have your Oscars, Grammys, and Golden Globes… the Tony’s are my night to pig out with all of my friends and celebrate theatre and get a taste of the best that the Broadway season has to offer.

Hosting a Tony Awards viewing party is a great way to celebrate with friends at home and have a good time without paying upwards of $1,000 for a ticket to the actual show!

So here are some tips and tricks for hosting a great Tony Party!

1. Make a Pinterest Board

Pin anything from decor ideas to cupcake recipes, champagne jello shots, and Tony awards bingo; Pinterest is a great place to organize all of your ideas in one place!

2. Invite all your biggest Broadway Nerd Friends

Send out a mass text, e-vite, or create a facebook event… but gather all of your broadway music loving thespians together in one place. Why live tweet when you can gab with your friends over a boozy drink?

3. Pump up your guests before the show

I’m talking about watching all the Neil Patrick Harris performances and that time that Cynthia Erivo stopped the show with her performance of “I’m Here” and creating a Spotify playlist of all of your favorite Broadway sing-a-longs to set the mood before the awards show.

4. Print out those Tony Ballots!

Create a contest with your guests during the show by seeing who can guess the most winners or play a couple rounds of Tony Bingo. You can even make gift bags or tiny awards to give out as a prize at the end of the night for all of your winners.

5. Serve Broadway-themed food

There is nothing more fun than a cleverly themed party! A fun way to keep the theme is to theme your food and drinks around some of your favorite Broadway shows or musicals, or theatre in general! Make “Krabby Patties” for SpongeBob the Musical, a clambake for Carousel, or Kalteen Bars for the Regina George of your friend group.

6. Don’t forget to tune in on June 10 at 8 pm ET!

Tune into CBS Sunday, June 10th at 8 pm to see Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban host the 72nd annual Tony Awards!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
