Baking It on Broadway!
EVERY Tony Winning Best Musical in 70 Seconds!
Matt strings together every musical that has ever walked away with the "Best Musical" Tony Award, (1949-2015) to the tune of "Yakko's World" from Animaniacs! Plus every musical nominee from 2016!
THE LYRICS:
Once, Fosse, and Hairspray
Jerome Robbins’ Broadway
And How to Succeed and Les Miz
Rent, Crazy For You
Applause, Avenue Q
In the Heights, Contact, Memphis, The Wiz
Gentleman’s Guide, Evita
Phantom of the Opera
Drood, Music Man, and King and I
Sound of Music would go
Up with Fiorello
In '60 when there was a tie
Annie, Millie, and Dolly cry out “Bye, Bye, Birdie!”
Follies lost to Two Gents of Verona
Pajama Game, Raisin and Ain’t Misbehavin’
Chase windmills with Man of La Mancha
Kinky Boots, South Pacific
A Little Night Music
My Fair Lady fills the collage
And if you want some Company
You can come join me
Sing “I Am What I Am” from La Cage
Guys and Dolls bet their chances
Cats pounce, Billy dances
To that Fiddler up on the roof
Jersey Boys, Spring Awakening
Fun Home and Lion King
Google this if you want proof
Kiss Me Kate, Kismet, Kiss of the “Spider-gal”
City of Angels is always in fashion
Spamalot, Sunset Boulevard, Titanic hit us hard
Mormon and Steve Sondheim’s Passion
Big River, Damn Yankees
And Will Rogers Follies
Hallelujah Baby was sweet
42nd Street, Redhead
And Cabaret are dead
From their shave by Sweeney on Fleet
1776
Is one of our top picks
Wonderful Town and almost done
Anita Morris scored “10” in Nine
Forum and Chorus Line
Which brings our list down to "One"
With a record of Tonys won
Back in 2001
Who could forget The Producers?
And in the theme of a sweep
That Hamilton will keep
Let’s look at all this year’s losers:
“Harsh, but accurate”
Bright Star, Waitress and School of Rock
Kick off our Tony talk
And Shuffle Along: Dot Dot Dot
If none of them win
Don’t throw them in the bin
Every musical has held to their “shot”
Every work nominated
Are all highly rated
There’s no time for each honored show
But because I am functional
I’ll stick with musical
Original/Revival: let’s go!
Founding Fathers are rapping
And Audra is tapping
And Cynthia Erivo “is here.”
And as we come to a close, here are my final prose:
I’m starting to lose steam
Pie goes well with ice cream
If I were a rich man
Whoa mama, You’re in the band!
Signing out , see you next year!
