CBS rounds up the stars for The Tonys

Kristin ChenowethCBS is rounding up some A-listers to appear at The Tony Awards this year. Alec Baldwin (30 Rock), Kristin Chenoweth (Pushing Daisies), Glenn Close (Damages), Richard Griffiths, Laura Linney (John Adams), John Lithgow, Liza Minnelli, Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds), Daniel Radcliffe, Brooke Shields (Lipstick Jungle) and Marisa Tomei will be presenters at this year’s award show. As previously announced, Whoopi Goldberg of The View, a Tony-winner herself, will be this year’s host.

Also, the Tony Award-winning productions The Lion King and Rent will make rare encore performances at this year’s gala.

The 62nd Annual Tony Awards will be broadcast live from Radio City Music Hall on Sunday, June 15th from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m. ET (delayed PT) on CBS. Here’s my issue with the Tonys. It’s long and it’s usually a snore. Do you think this effort to spice up the show will pay off? Does it make you want to tune in?
