Nice move on their part and it was done, it seems, as a community.

Kushner: “Ethically and morally, this felt like a recognition of the particular vulnerability of the theater industry. It’s the right thing to do, and costs us nothing.”

The Tonys had better present Best Book and Best Score on the main program, or that would be a major slap in the face to the playwrights who saved them. I would imagine all the Best Book nominees are members of the WGA, as are presumably at least Cameron Crowe and David Lindsay-Abaire for Best Score.
