Tony Awards Recap: Writer-Less, Dance-Filled

Dance Magazine: First things first: It was an extraordinary year for dancing and choreography on Broadway, and last night’s Tony Awards telecast was the beneficiary. Between the swirling expressionist ensemble in which Steven Hoggett cocoons the macabre tale of Sweeney Todd, the leaping, tumbling Jennifer Weber youthquake accompanying the journey of a post-Romeo Juliet in & Juliet, and the consummate artistry of master dancemakers (and past Tony winners) Susan Stroman and Casey Nicholaw, represented this season by New York, New York and Some Like It Hot, the 76th Annual Tony Awards show was going to be bursting with movement no matter what.
