Tony Awards

The 58th Annual Tony Awards were held June 6, 2004 at Radio City Music Hall and broadcast on CBS television. Hugh Jackman was the host. The Awards telecast won the Creative Arts Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Special, and Jackman won the Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program. Wicked was easily the biggest show to open out of all of the nominees (it has not officially closed at all, making it one of the longest-running shows in Broadway history), however it didn't mean success. The revival of Assassins went and won a season-best 5 awards, including Best Revival of a Musical. Wicked was even snubbed of the coveted Best Musical prize; that award went to Avenue Q.
