Without a doubt, one of the most fun events of the theater season is the “class photo”
for which the Tony Award nominees pose on Military Island in Times Square each year.
At today’s shoot, separate set-ups were done for (1) the nominees in the acting categories
and (2) the nominees in all categories. Though not every last one of the acting nominees
showed, most of them did — and here they are! The 2005 Tony Awards ceremony will
be held at Radio City Music Hall on Sunday, June 5 and will be televised by CBS
from 8pm to 11pm.
