Comments

Edited version of the 62nd Tony Awards featuring just the 

performances, including the current cast of 'Rent' introduced by Anthony Rapp

who would then be joined by (most of) the original casts 

(minus Kristen Lee Kelly & Jesse L. Martin)

to sing the show out in fine stylel 

Good quality although not quite as sharp as it could be and

naturally full of dodgy camera work, and sound issues as always with the Tony's.

There are a couple of on screen announcements from the tapers TIVO though.
