Musicals and plays that were represented: Broadway Bound, Coastal Disturbances, Fences, Les Liaisons Dangereuses Rags, Les Misérables, Me and My Girl, Starlight Express.
There were several special performances and tributes. The song "Bosom Buddies" from Mame was performed by former cast-mates Angela Lansbury and Bea Arthur. There was a special salute to Robert Preston, who died in March 1987. Finally, A tribute to George Abbott.
I come back to the performance of Bea and Angela every now and then to remind myself that the world can be fun and full of love. Even today I'm sad that Bea is no longer with us but we have such great memories.
I agree longtime fan of both
They brought happiness to the world
Angela and Bea duet starts at 1:15:06. So wonderful!
Thanks!
just noticed you also noted that, thanks. It was a great duet! And their beautiful dresses!
Back when Awards Shows were *WORTH* watching.
Watch any tony awards from any year and you will be so happy you did!
Bea and Angela still had it in 1987....no one can compare to their performance of "Bosom Buddies".
Angela was having a blast up there in the final shimmy with Bea.
We’re all here for Bea and Angela’s performance
Wow they were the best 🙌
I'm sure they're having a grand old party up in heaven!
Ehhh, some of us are here to see John Napier be a sore winner. 25:55
I was LUCKY enough to see Lansbury in a revival of "Mame" in summer 1983.
She was GREAT!!!
Bea Arthur and Angela Lansbury in their number - the best! Had me watching and watching... glad I found this during quarantine.
Bea and Angela are absolutely amazing. Absolutely timeless. Rip Bea Arthur
Bea Arthur and Angela Lansbury. What a treasure to see them perform this great number.
... and now we've lost Angela Lansbury as well.
Rest in eternal peace ...
Lansbury/Arthur has to be one of the best ever...you watch it once, you can't stop
Angela was 62 here, and Bea was 65! They looked so great for their ages, and Angela still does at nearly 94. Both simply brilliant.
they look great at their ages!
Yes- as much as I love seeing the Legends, it is always bittersweet to me because all of the ones I grew up with are gone now, and unless I knock over a bank, I can't get to see the new faces on stage... :-(
Bea Arthur must have been something in her prime!
Jordan Dack I was privileged enough to see Miss Lansbury perform in Blithe Spirit. This was just 2-3 years ago. She was incredible
Hold on - 62 is the new 50 and 65 is the new 55! You must be younger than 25...!!
Αngela and Bea ! Wonderful wonderful Unforgettable performers !
Just wanted to see Angela Lansbury and Bea Authur perform together. Legends!
I saw them live in Mame back when I was in college and made a trip to NYC. Great memories.
That's what I've been waiting for, too.
I don't know if this is worth it.
Legions?
@@theraven6843 Spellcheck police?
When Angela Lansbury descends the stairs in the opening, she becomes the definition of what a bigger than life , glamorous Broadway star should look like, with the effervescent personality and limitless talent to complete the image, so well-deserving of her every Tony Award and accolade.
She'd agree with you 1,000%.
@@DDumbrille However in a very humble way ! She is quite the Lady !
And also, off-stage, warm, genuine and gentle - I had the privilege of spending an hour with her for an interview prior to one of her Tony hosting duties shortly after the one posted here. Lovely woman, and I did enough of these to know when they're faking it.
@@rachel-in-the-208 Her husband of something on the order of 60 years or so died awhile back and I understand that was difficult for her, of course. Same with Eva Marie Saint. But given her age I think she's more or less OK from what little I know. Not sure whether she's still working though you could certainly Google and click on 'news' link to see if there's anything about her of note in recent months. Like all my interviews I saved the tape. Her last line" (we did the interview in a Manhattan restaurant): 'Don't forget your glasses - once a mother, always a mother." Sweet!
@@DDumbrille hahaha
I don't care how many times I've seen Les Mis, or how many hundreds of times I've listened to the recording, every time I see a performance of One Day More, it sends chills down my spine and tears to my eyes.
....as does Bring Him Home. This would have been an amazing cast to have seen. No matter how many times I have seen it and how many play the part, Colm Wilkinson IS Jean Valjean.
100%
Bee and Angela ...couldn't get any better! Both simply BEAUTIFUL!!
Catherine Cox, who was nominated for leading actress in a musical, was a college professor of mine, and she changed my life. What a talented artist, and one of my heroes! I owe her the world for all she has done for me!
Go Angela, gorgeous dress and you are a legend still with us!
It's an original Bob Mackie.
It’s lovely to have this time with Angela Lansbury preserved in light, color, and shadow. Sleep well, Ms. Lansbury.
This one was a classic. So many people I love to see. Bernadette Peters, Jack Lemmon, and I am not even a regular tv/theatre fan. Love Angela Lansbury and love the duet with Bea Arthur. Humour makes me watch! Watch this for this.
You can still wear Angela's dress today. Superb!
I watched this on TV from my hotel room in midtown Manhattan. I'd just moved to NYC a couple of days earlier and it was thrilling to be in the same city where this magic was happening!
I am Angela Lansbury's biggest fan! I absolutely love her and everything she has done! She is a magical one-of-a-kind!
I might have to challenge the biggest fan comment! I am obsessed! Love her! 😀
Just to see Angela and Bea perform together was worth waiting for...wow!
I always remembered Angela's gown. Both she and Bea had thickened a tad around
the middle but her designer worked to hide it, while Bea apparently just 'threw up her hands' and
adopted her later, Golden girls fashion silhouette.
I feel like Bea is just playing Dorothy here her and Angela = dream duo 🎭🎭❤️❤️
This program won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Program.
They didn’t even get up. It’s freaking Bea Arthur and Angela Lansbury, people! Get up! 💫⭐️💫 Rest Well, Bea. Miss you, beautiful star.
My thoughts exactly!!
There were some Tony Shows, beginning in mid-70s, when the audience was instructed to stay seated, and not stand, not even for a standing ovation, as well as when to applaud or not.
And now, since you're your comment three years ago, Angela has passed. A good lifelong best pal of mine got to know her, via his marriage to playwright Terrence McNally, and his own work as a theater producer (my pal has one 2 Tony's!).
Thank you, thank you..... sooo great to see this!!!!!!! Bea and Angie... just adorable....
Angela Lansbury, Mary Martin, Mary Tyler Moore, Chita Rivera, Bea Arthur and Barbara Cook--all on the same stage. Won't ever happen again!
Bill Rapp Right. Four of the six are dead.
It was such an amazing moment in theatre history!
Most beautiful Tony dress of all time! You go girl!
This is a fantastic watch. So much talent. Angela Lansbury . . . simply wonderful.
Rip Dame Angela Lansbury who hosted this Tony Award (16/10/1925-11/10/2022)
It's lovely to see Bea Arthur and Lynn Redgrave, both of whom are gone now. And, of course, Angela Lansbury, who is just wonderful.
So loved Robert Preston. An amazing actor. Incredible energy and seemed the man of the year in anything he was in. His role in Victor/Victoria was such risk, but he handled it with aplomb and nailed his character perfectly. Belated condolences to all who loved him. :)
I love Angela, Mary, and the rest...people who I watched during my childhood in the 60's. I was an old-soul and loved all of the older stuff. G'day.
Wow, what a treat. Thank you for positing this wonderful gem from yesteryear. Love Les Miserables. glad to see them win so many awards. Love Angela Lansbury.
Well I was in college when this first aired and I'm sure I was too busy to notice it happening at the time, but my God! What a friggin show! Thanks so much for sharing this with all of us! I'm looking through the comments and people are mentioning Angela Lansbury and Bea Arthur and Alan Rickman and many others. Did anyone notice Tommy Tune! Was anyone left that wasn't on this show? I couldn't believe how many stars they got for this odd number 41st year. Makes you wonder what the 40th the year before must have been like. Why don't they spend the money and make these awards shows as good as this anymore?
Burnedette Peters sang my audition song .Time Heals Everything. I loved Robert Preston. What a sweet moment was there. It seemed to me that they were all angelic human beings supporting each other, because they had performed with their heart's goodness from inside because they were free to earn their own talent.
The Bergenfield High school (BHS ) marching band performed 76 trombones. I truly had forgotten how nervous we all were that day. That's for sharing this flash back for me.
Were you actually performing at the Tony Awards?
Yes
+Avril Guthrie I know you posted this a year ago, but I find this interesting. How was your school's band picked? Was it your first time in NY? What do you remember about your time in the city? (Not just at the Tonys.)
+yusakug
It was exciting and just pure energy. It wasn't our first time in New York. We also performed at the Macy's day parade, Good morning America, and at the Rockefeller Center during this time or marching band was selected to do a lot of things within the state of New York and we were charged up and ready to go. As far as how we were selected I think it was more our band director Mr. Levy that had the connections and make sure our band was seen.
Thank you for sharing your memories, Avril. In all parades I've always loved the marching bands!
Thank You... What heaven this is... Start to Finish... Go, Theatre! xo
You had me at Angela Lansbury and Bea Arthur!
God, Angela Lansbury was such a gem. I miss her so so much
I loved this. I was 18 in 1987 but I didn't know from the theater back then. Angela and Bea were magnificent and Les Mis is a favorite but darn it, I can't stop thinking about how great Tim Daly looked in those jeans. Thanks for posting this video.
What a treat..a blessing to have all these talents and faces in one show from long ago. ♥️😘
⭐️ The description omits that the introduction is by beloved Bill Irwin ⭐️
Thank you, I was wondering who that was. I kept wondering if it was Christopher Reeves but I didn't think so.
I saw this when it first came out and loved it, thanks soooo much for letting me relive that excitement of it all.😊♥️😎✌️
Now that Bea Arthur is gone, I'm glad Busom Buddies is on tape.
Bea always nails the bottom note,when harmonizing👍👍😉
I remember when the TONYs would air segments of the nominated plays. Wow!!
Loved it. Thank you for sharing and give us the opportunity to re live those moments.
It is 2022 and Angela Landsbury has just passed.
Angela and Bea...nothing more to be said. James Earl Jones...same thing. Thanks for posting this 5 years ago. I am just catching up now. Made an old show tune queen smile.
saw 7 of those musicals on Broadway then. It was one of the last really good years of an abundance of quality Broadway shows.
so wonderful to see those talented actors. Thank you so much for uploading the award show! Lynn Redgrave rocks :)
James Earl Jones in Fences?! 31:00 Good grief. This is amazing.
Courtney B. Vance playing his son....he says little but DAMN did he make me teary. Fantastic.
They need to start adding plays to the showings again because the Fences scene...sheeesh!
dignature123 Well, last year they featured a scene from “Choir Boy”
Love To Sing! Yeah but it was still a musical number
The Duet with Lansbury & Arthur. I thought Lansbury was having a ball up there. RIP those two gorgeous ladies.
Annette Bening was only 29 at the time of this. Now she’s 61, the same age as my mom.
back when life was quality, appreciative, respectful, classy, supportive and positive.....what happened!!!!
Electronics happened, were letting life slip away without a flight ☹️
AMENNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!
@Tracy Lands even so, regardless back then you worked for your fame now your abuse is your fame and ultimate downfall....back then their work was there fame and most of the time their gain regardless of what happened behind the scenes
Exactly what difference was there? You're looking through Rose tinted glasses I think.
@@katg7965 you only have to look at the shitty reality TV shows and the messy youtube influencers to see the big difference even pollitic's has become more messier these days
Such an excellent intro Fantastic for Dame Angela Lansbury she deserves it the gentleman who is MC fantastic
Jessica Fletcher singing, dancing, and vamping it up!!!!
My dad would take a trip to London every year when I was young and bring back the soundtrack of the newest hit musical. So when I was 8 years old I scooted around the floor in my socks to a record Starlight Express. And when cassette tapes came along he would play those tapes in the car all year long. So I pretty much had the London productions of Les Mis and Phantom memorized.
I feel special coming across this: two of my favorite gals (Bea Arthur and Angela Lansbury) and this is the year I was born. Simply the best!
I cried when Angela came on stage
Angela & Bea completely brilliant doing a stunning "Bosom Buddies", clearly "Mame" the movie would have been a lasting classic with this phenomenal duo great this captivating performance captured on film to savor and enjoy a magical moment over and over...strange audience didn't give deserved Standing Ovation for this once in a lifetime special performance by two legendary icons at the top of their game...
So glad youtube recommended this to me. Thank you for uploading this gem.
omg those 80's drop-waist dresses!!
Love the Lambeth Walk. "Me And My Girl" is such a forgotten gem. Had the misfortune of being up against Les Miz which was off-the-charts.
man the ceremonies back then were a whole lot different from today, they don't show the plays anymore not to mention the revival of a play/musical are two separate categories now
I love you2 hurry home darling 💘I love Mary Tyler Moore! RIP Angel!💘👼💘🦉☮️🧚🏻🧚🏻🧚🏻
Deepest gratitude to Miss Pooch smooth for sharing!
John Napier is a legend. He's designed some of the most incredible sets in Broadway history
Kind of a sore winner though...
@tommytimp what was that acceptance? Lololol!
I recall this broadcast...away from all the bright lights & music & celebrating there was that early onslaught & reality of AIDS wrecking every world society...we were so unsure while being dedicated to live forward into better times. We all still work & pray for peace, comfort, & joy for everyone always. ...It's wonderful to once again see this stage of talented people raising & sharing light! ...Thank you for gifting us this sensational video!
Wow! I had this on VHS back in the day, lent it out & never got it back! Thank you for posting! :D
Thank you for posting this recording.
Because it doesn't look like anyone else mentioned him, the guy doing the talking is the fabulous and amazing Bill Irwin. He's done everything from Waiting for Godot to Sesame Street to Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf for which he won the Tony.
C.B. Pratt Northern Exposure too
C.B. Pratt I went to see Bill Irwin in FOOL MOON on Broadway, twice! And one of those times, Patrick Stewart was sitting just a row ahead of me in the orchestra. 🙂
@@jesharris Lucky!
Wow! James Earl Jones was incredible!
I loved the play excerpts
They need to do a revival of Me and My Girl. Doin the Lambeth Walk.
Is there any doubt what the best awards show on TV is? Year after year after year. The two tributes were extraordinary. I saw Mary Martin and Robert Preston in "I Do! I Do!" with my parents from the first row of the theater (we were just lucky getting those tickets by mail) and met Miss Martin afterwards in her dressing room. Everyone said my mother resembled her and she invited us backstage to verify or disprove the theory after my mother wrote her with the story. What a wonderful woman and actress. I loved her from "Peter Pan" on TV when I was just a tyke. She was clearly emotional about being part of the Preston tribute here. I was fortunate enough to see "Broadway Bound" and "Starlight Express" on Broadway that year during the short time I was visiting the City. Wish I could get back to see more today (and wish I could afford the tickets). But boy, does this video bring back very fond memories. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I met Mary Martin in 1976 and as you know, she was incredibly nice and talented!
And once again, 2019 Tony’s, the most entertaining Awards show from start to finish! Corden a great host and that New York theatre loving audience, many of them actors of the Broadway stage, infuse the broadcast with such enthusiasm, showcasing their absolute joy for just being there. (Unlike Oscars etc where the audience looks like they can’t wait until it’s over)
I started watching these during quarantine. As a young*er* theatre fan (I was born in 87), it's so amazing to see these iconic performers during their heyday. Thank you so much for sharing.
Wow, watching these older Tony Award shows blows my mind with how simple yet extravagant shows can be with out such technology bloated shows up, i mean it's great we have the tech, but even the 76 trombone section was breath taking, now you have to have add Hugh Jackman. Also amazed at the diversity of shows, looking through the 70 & 80s shows, my gosh so many shows featuring Black casts, as well as winning awards, and Hamilton broke the glass ceiling of diversity...
Yes, I really really really really really have to have Hugh Jackman! Everywhere, all the time!
+Taylor Dean Wilson Not sure whether Hugh & Sutton will open on Broadway in the fall as originally planned. Also re: Hamilton - it didn't break a glass veiling of diversity; there have been shows with all-Black (or non-White) casts for ages.
@@rachel-in-the-208 A new production of "The Music Man" starring Hugh Jackman as Harold Hill & Sutton Foster as Marian Paroo is (or was) scheduled to open on Broadway in the fall of 2020. During the 1987 Tony Awards they had a live band march onstage playing "76 Trombones" (one popular song from that musical) to introduce a portion of the evening in which they honored Robert Preston (who originated the Harold Hill role on Bway & who played the same role in the movie of "The Music Man."). Sorry if that's more info than you wanted; I don't know who is familiar with musicals of the 50s & 60s and who is just here for the fabulous 80s fashion.
To bad Hamilton is as historically accurate as a Lisa Scottoline novel
I loved when they did scenes from plays. I really miss that.
Broadway Bound was and is. an unforgettable classic,
"
What an entrance...
My love for Angela Lansbury got my attention
at -45 is bosom buddies, and I saw them on Broadway doing it. beautiful was a neighbour in Bedford and I enjoyed that night so well. to see them reform it is wondeful.
Me and my mother used to watch the Tony's every year. We watched this one but I really don't remember this.
Wonderful! This is entertainment at ifs best; the very definition and essence of such.
Fences was and is a classic!
The tribute to Robert Preston was one of the best I've ever seen. Bernadette Peters, Barbara Cook, and Mary Martin. Does it get any better than that?
I met Mary Martin in 1976 and she is one of the nicest ladies that I have ever met!
JEJ brought tears to my eyes. Best lessons for each and every one of us.
EXTRAORDINARY & LEGENDARY.....those times will probably never return! referring to Angela And Bea
R.I.P. Angela- btw BEST AWARDS
SHOW DRESS of ALL TIME!
Bob Mackie did the dresses I believe.
Damn..Angela was fabulous!
Funny how at 1:16:56 Bea Arthur sings to Angela Lansbury “like Orphan Annie and Sandy”, and then at 1:58:13 who pops up in the final medley but Broadway’s original Annie, Andrea McArdle... and in her Starlight Express roller skates no less. (looks like she’s pretty good on those skates, too. Can’t imagine its easy to sing while doing that.)
Thanks for posting
I know current theatergoers are too generous with standing ovations but damn, there were at least half a dozen truly iconic moments in this show. And those people were GLUED to their damn seat (until the Abbott tribute).
Mary Martin! JR's Mom! Gotta love them all!
The American Theatah!! at its best , including the best of London and Paris! Why can't we cross pollinate greatness, in culture or politics?
Watching because Arthur and Lansbury are to be reunited tonight enjoy
