| Variety dished with Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss, who've won several Emmys for their Tonycasts, about producing the Democratic Convention. Kirshner and Weiss described the various tricky and technical challenges of pulling it off. They're also asked about the upcoming 2020 digital Tonys. Weiss: ''I’m just not sure of anything more than an announcement at this moment. I will say this though, Ricky and I do TV all the time, but the Tonys is a really unique thing that we’ve been really honored to be a part of, going on 20 years at this point. Everybody who makes the Tonys possible is part of a community that’s entirely shut down. Our industry, television, has continued. Theater has not. I can’t even begin to tell you the internal sorrow over the fact that so many people that we know, and I’m not just talking actors and directors and choreographers, I’m talking all the way down the line, nobody’s working right now, because they can’t. We want to do whatever we can to help make that better in any way we can.'' |
