The 2016 Tony Awards are tonight, and everyone is expecting Hamilton to do pretty well. But CBS is trying to inject more star power into the evening, with Anna Wintour styling nominees and celebrities like Claire Danes, Jake Gyllenhaal and Cate Blanchett also appearing. A huge red carpet was set up outside the Beacon Theater (across from Fairway Market!) for close-ups.
The NYPD is on extra high alert after horrible mass shooting in Orlando. (Many of the nominees are wearing silver ribbons to remember the victims.) Still, many stars greeted fans, shaking their hands and taking selfies.
