Chapter 1362

The 67th Tony Awards ceremony begins. Neil Patrick Harris is the host of the party for the third year in a row. This versatile actor has won the Emmy and Tony Awards, and has won a place in the fierce competition of Hollywood through his performance.

But tonight, Neil is under great pressure, because the wonderful hosting in the past two years has pushed everyone's expectations to a new height, and it is never easy to bring forth new things through the old; Also because this year's award ceremony has maintained too much attention and pressure, which is really unbearable.

"I regret it." During the opening performance, Neil said frankly and jokingly, "when I saw the nomination list, I regretted it. God, what did I do wrong? I promise, I will do my best to repay, but this time, just this time, please make sure that I get through it safely, but today's situation on the red carpet directly proves that I still think too much. "

The exaggerated expression made the audience laugh. "I know that no matter how I perform tonight, the focus is doomed to stay on me. Obviously, I put myself in a dilemma, but... I decided to try. Would you like to come with me?"

At a turning point, Neil began to hum, just like "music in the rain", jumping up with light steps. Without any embarrassment and strangeness, he cut into the aria of "witch in boots", officially opening today's opening performance. In a moment, the atmosphere of Radio City Concert Hall began to be lively.

Neil's skill can be seen.

But, as Neil said, tonight's focus is not on him, not even on the competition for a number of awards. Even the 13 nominees of "witch in boots" are willing to lose the upper hand. Everyone's focus is on the best musical actor, or more accurately, on lenley.

No one can compare.

After the opening of the award ceremony, the audience was a little absent-minded, noisy and lack of enthusiasm. It seemed that there was always a lack of chemical reaction, and the singing and dancing performance for more than 90 minutes was boring and powerless.

In the interview after the award ceremony, Neil also reluctantly said, "I tried my best."

After that, Neil formally resigned and firmly said that space would not continue to be the host. As for the reason, it's not clear whether it's because of the fatigue after taking charge of the microphone for three consecutive years, or because the repercussions of the performance that night were far lower than expected. Maybe both.

This situation lasted until Charlotte Martin appeared on the stage, the atmosphere of almost the whole audience was finally lively, and the uproar could not start to boil all the time.

According to the list of guests announced before the award ceremony, Charlotte Martin, the current chairman of Broadway alliance, is the guest of the best musical actor award. Because Steve Kazee, the winner of last year's award, was injured and could not be present, he temporarily took over the position of awarding the award.

There was no need for words or reminders. All the guests sat upright and were in a state of high spirits. The new look was completely different from before. The gradually gathered attention and curiosity showed the best state of the whole audience.

Before that, even if "les miserables" or "booty witch" won the prize, they could not feel the enthusiasm. The tension and explosive power immediately began to surge up. Even without cheers or applause, the atmosphere on the scene had been reborn.

This is the real play.

Charlotte, who has seen numerous storms in her career, can't help getting a little nervous. "Wow, who can tell me what happened? Why does everyone look at me with such loving eyes? "

A joke makes all the audience laugh in an instant. It doesn't seem to take any effort at all; In sharp contrast, Neil, who was unable to ease the atmosphere with all his efforts in the previous hosting, now stands on the side platform, helplessly spreading his hands

I am also very desperate!

Charlotte raised the envelope in her hand. She could clearly feel that all the eyes of the audience were on it.

Charlotte's fingers contracted unconsciously. Her slightly tense muscles made her laugh and joke. "As usual, I like to announce the winning result directly. This is Tony, not Oscar."

The banter between the words made the scene laugh again. It is obvious that Broadway's attitude towards Hollywood always has a trace of resistance and rejection, even disdain and disdain. Although it is not the original intention, the artist's lofty relief is still inevitable.

"But just now in the backstage, everyone told me that this is an important task to reveal the historical moment. Maybe I should say something and create some suspense." Charlotte honestly said, but inadvertently outlined the whole industry are nervous about it boiling scene, "I think, maybe I really should say something."

"Broadway has regained its long lost glory in the past year‘ "Piping's true story" and "les miserables" once again attract the audience to re-enter the theater; Tom Hanks and Langley hall also proved once again the appeal of drama actors to loyal fans; Of course, there are also original masterpieces such as "witch in boots" and "lucky man", which prove that our creation is still full of vitality. It's a year to celebrate. "

Charlotte solemnly delivered the officer's speech, rigid and uninteresting, then suddenly stopped, looked at the audience carefully, let the silence spread slightly, and then said again, "you all thought I would mention that, right?" Then he cocked up his mouth with pride. The general performance of the old urchin made everyone helpless and funny.

"Well, I still have to mention that this is my task today. There is no way." Charlotte spread out her hands. "In the past year, a group of excellent actors have sprung up again on Broadway, especially musical actors. None of the five nominees who won the best musical actor this year has won the Tony Award, which means that no matter who wins tonight, they will write their own history. Now, the answer is in my hands. "

"Before the opening, I had a chat with lanli, who won the Tony Award nomination for the first time..." before the words were finished, the scene remembered a few scattered whistles, which interrupted Charlotte's words. At the same time, it also made the audience laugh. Charlotte nodded meaningfully, "so, is this what you want? Well, we're going to disappoint you. "

"Lenley and I talked about the acting experience on Broadway and the west end of London. He thought it was a learning process. He enjoyed the performances of Billy Porter and stark Sanders in the" buggy in boots "very much. Such performances can't be felt on the screen." Charlotte's words immediately made the audience applaud. They are all firm supporters of Broadway. After all, they still hope to see the drama have a more long-term development.

Charlotte also applauded for the blue gift under the stage. "I sincerely hope that through many wonderful works this year, people can appreciate the charm of drama and performance, and more young actors can join us."

Eh, what is the implication of this sentence? Is it a hint that we hope to attract more young actors and young audiences through blue sky?

But before the audience had time to reflect, Charlotte went on, "Tom, I'm not aiming at you."

Young actor Tom Hanks, who obviously won the nomination tonight, is no longer young.

Tom also raised his hands with incomparable cooperation to express his protest, which made the atmosphere surging up again.

Charlotte raised her hands and pressed them down with a smile. "I know, I know, I've been delayed for three minutes, and the Tony Award is about to become a golden ball award. Obviously, everyone has begun to be impatient. So, I'll speed up now, let's find out the answer together."

The casual jokes kept the Radio City Concert Hall happy. It's not that Neil's hosting is not good enough, but Charlotte has the trump card of the night.

To be honest, it's really a blow for the host.

Charlotte took a deep breath. "Let's give our applause to the five nominees tonight, Billy Porter of the Jackie boots, Bertie Carville of Matilda, Sandino Fontana of Rogers and Hammerstein, stark Sanders of the Jackie boots, and lenley Hall of les miserables."

Charlotte would pause for a moment when she read a name, and all the audience would clap politely. When the last name was spoken, the applause went up to a higher level, really showing the rare excitement and excitement.

Charlotte did not continue to create suspense, because there was no need at all. The tension in the room had reached the extreme, and the hot and turbulent heat wave was almost suffocating and breathless.

"The winner of the 67th Tony Award for best musical actor is..." Charlotte opened the envelope.

Charlotte's movements were crisp, without hesitation or trembling.

The whole audience held their breath and gazed, but they were so nervous that even the heart beat almost disappeared.

The whole scene, tight to selfless mood firmly grasped everyone's heart, contraction, contraction, the huge pressure let the ear appeared a roar, but can not distinguish the specific source and source, completely selfless.

Billy Porter is tense, Bertie Carville is swallowing, Sandino Fontana is pulling his collar to try to breathe some fresh air, and stark Sanders is stiff on the seat.

No one can be an exception, especially the nominees.

This time, Lan Li is not free from vulgarity.
