- This is the opening sequence to the 2001 Tony Awards. Featuring the original cast of the Tony winning revival of 42nd Street. Choreography by Randy Skinner. This is the entire version. The first section was taped after one of our performance and we were in the subway until 3:00 in the morning. The second section was live at Radio CIty. It was a thrilling experience for all.
Hey WowTiger2. I was one of the dancers in this clip. I did the show for two years. The opening for the tonys was a combination of things. The stair dance was a shortened version of what we did every night. It was taped at our theatre, The Fords Center, earlier. Then of course the subway was its own thing, again taped. All choreographed by Randy Skinner. We go to an actual live performance once we start running down the aisle of Radio City.
Thank you so much for what you guys do! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ this is my favorite Broadway musical. When I was 13 back in 2003 my school went to NYC and we saw 42nd street and it was pure magic.
Joel, this is the only Broadway performance that I've seen so far. It was either June 25 (Monday) or June 26 (Tuesday) of 2001, 3rd row, center section. I'd like to think you were part of that performance. If I never see another Broadway production, I am confident that I could not have had a better Broadway experience than the 2001 revival of 42nd Street. It really summed up what I always believed Broadway to be about. This particular production used the tagline "The Broadway Musical for people who Love Broadway Musicals" and it was spot on.
@@nottoday.9503 I thank you for your kind words. And I can only assume that I was in the show the night you saw it. It would have been a Tuesday night.(We were off on Mondays). I don't recall missing a performance for a long time into the run so I am sure you saw me in it. And just a few weeks after this video was shown live on TV. I agree with you, you can't get a better broadway love letter than that of 42nd Street. It was a honor to have been a part of it. All the best.
@@Brooster123 I had the pleasure of seeing this revival twice and it was such a FUN, wonderful production! And what a thrill that must have been to open the Tonys! Cheers from Vegas!
Hey, Joel, I know this is probably a big ask (and my apologies if it is), but - that woman wearing the red baseball cap at 1:44-1:57 - I don’t know if you know who she is, let alone if you’re still in contact with her, but yesterday, I left a HUGE (and I do mean HUGE) compliment to her in this TH-cam clip; after stumbling upon YOUR TH-cam comment, there’s a part of me that’s kinda, sorta curious towards how she’d respond to MY comment. If you know who she is, & how to get in touch with her, could you see to it that she reads it? Again, I know I’m making a big ask (life happens, and you may not know how to reach out to her), but if you do know & you can get it to her, thanks in advance! I really appreciate it!
My Broadway musical debut, and Tony Debut. Love this! Dream come true!
What a great experience that must have been! Congrats on all your success!
I Google Searched your name the moment I saw this comment; you got to play Peggy Sawyer? How lucky can you get?!
I'll bet you have a million stories from your time working on this show! I heard somewhere that you once had to go on for Kate mid-show after she suffered a nasty, Dorothy Brock-style ankle injury or some such. Life imitating art. Is this true?
Also, please tell us about what it was like being on set with Philip Seymour Hoffman in the masterpiece Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. (Six degrees of separation: I recently got to be a background actor in a movie directed by Phil's onscreen "brother" from that film, Ethan Hawke.)
Lucky!
Classic Broadway at its finest. Keep these amazing shows alive!
Looks like 42nd street is dead now...
This is the first Tony awards I remember watching. I was six years old. When the cast went out onto the street and into the subway I was just completely blown away. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen.
I was eight that year
That's how you start a show.
+bayonnetenor Totally right! Curtain up and light the lights
@WowTiger2 Also the girl in blue is named Kate Levering. She played the role of Peggy Sawyer and was nominated for a Tony Award that night. That is the reason she is sitting in the audience when we pull her up onstage. The entire sequence was choreographed by Randy Skinner, who was also Tony Nominated that night. It was such a thrill to be a part of and I will always remember it. I am glad you enjoy it as much as I remember doing it.
I heard Kate went on to enjoy some success on television, particularly as a series regular in Drop Dead Diva, but I hope we haven't heard the last of her on the stage.
Wasn’t the one in the blue Elisa Van Duyne?
Love the bravado of the woman on the train joining in with the high kicks. 🤣
Same😂
She looked like she was one of the dancers but wore street clothes to make it look like she was just someone on the train
I'll never forget seeing this show on Broadway! It was my first Broadway show and I was only in kindergarten. 42nd Street will always have a special place in my heart.
+AmeliaBell28 That's great to hear from a New Yorker
It was my first Broadway show also!!! ❤️
This is my favorite Tony Awards performance, ever. Every time I watch it, my heart goes "FUCK YEAH BROADWAY!"
That moment at 3:18 when Kate has moved through the crowd and the whole cast turns around for the time steps is one of the most goose-bump inducing moments!! Such energy given from the performers and then from the audience!!
Saw on Broadway in revival in 1983? First lover relationship surprised me with flight and ten shows in 9 days. Hotel Window 1/4 inch thick with ice! Coldest winter in decades. 42nd Street first show. I refused to see the drama our last night. I got a Ticketron 1/2 price return tx to 42nd St! My greatest travel experience of MOMA, museums, cheese cake, dining out, walking Central Park, theater everyday but Monday. And starting and ending with 42nd Streets.
Thank You BROADWAY!
This is my go to when I need a pick me up!
FANTASTIC Broadway hit.... Thanks for posting this outstanding share.
I saw this show in Dublin. and it is one of all time great musicals
The sound of their taps makes me want to eat popcorn for some reason.
This brought back SO many wonderful memories (and reminded me of the number of times I ran into Jerry Orbach in our apt. building's elevator - he was always quick to get home after the show for his poker games! LOL). Thank you for posting the REAL version ~ nothing worse than a poor cut that messes up audio/video! (especially tap!) This must have been a spectacular night for you...truly a dream come true! Congratulations!
:) Mr. Orback is so wonderful in this show.
Quintessential energy source and thrilling to this day. Definitive ageless Broadway! -- simply my opinion. Thank You for posting this.
It's my dream to be on Broadway in a big show like this!!!
@WowTiger2
Glad you enjoy it. It was fun and exhilarating to be a part of it. This is the only clip, that I know of, that has the entire presentation as it appeared on the 2001 Tony Awards telecast. There is a cut version that is on a "Broadway Treasures" DVD which you can purchase. But the cut is all to hell and our feet dont match the tap sounds.
I first saw 42nd Street in Long Beach my hometown three years ago and I'm seeing it again on November 14th in Costa Mesa as they welcome the new national tour based on the 2001 revival with Randy Skinner and Mark Bramble returning as directors!
May I ask if it was at the Segerstrom Center? I saw the show for the first time last night and have been hunting down anything, music and clips, to prolong the experience. It was fantastic!
Jenna L Yes it was. I saw it on Saturday afternoon with my mom and it was sensational
wonderfull musical...amazing performance
I adore that passenger with the red baseball cap ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ She’s my favorite character in this whole segment ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I LOVE HER ❤️❤️❤️❤️ She has no idea (and looks concerned over) who these random strangers are, what they’re doing on the subway car, what’s going on, and why they’re all dancing in perfect unison, but she’s a beautiful soul by suddenly becoming so enthralled by what’s going on around her that, in an instant, she’s willing to join in with this complete randomness surrounding her, and take it all in stride by dancing along with these random strangers surrounding her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ She’s loving, and is having so much fun with, this impromptu situation she finds herself in ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ If there was ever a more wonderfully awesome spontaneous cheerleader to support this cast, that lady wearing the red baseball cap is it, and she deserves so much praise and gratitude for the way she’s showing it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Her moment may last a few seconds, but she’s the true star of that Subway Car scene ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
She was the dance capitan of the show❤
FANTASTIC.....Thank you for posting.
Classic, wonderful, amazing, fantastic, incredible Broadway. Gotta love it.
At the end of the video it finally goes into focus and you can actually see the faces of the dancers. And I spot to the right of the girl in blue dress the incredibly talented Michael Clowers hoofing it!
still get cold chills watching this...especially the part where kate breaks through from the back and you all come tapping forward. you all inspired me show much when i was younger. loved this revival. thank you for this.
The Broadway Lost treasure video is a cut version. Our feet don't match up to the audio because of it. This version is the entire uncut version.
Thank you for putting the whole thing up. I've always really liked watching the dancer run through the thearter and up to the stage and most version online cut that part out.
I saw the first road company of this, then a community theater production and two years ago I spend New Year's Eve afternoon at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane seeing quite an exceptional production of it, which was later broadcast on PBS!
I've seen a community production, then a non equity national tour then the PBS broadcast
I saw this production twice - great show! Audition, Shadow Waltz, Keep Young and Beautiful/Dames, and the big finale were particular standouts. Nice sets and costumes, great talent, and sharp choreography.
Look out world!! We're coming to Broadway one day!!
Tony Awards first started at Sardi's Restaurant in NYC
Jack Val I didn’t know until now
Saw this show 3 times at the Ford, great stuff
Hermoso divino sentir ese susurro en los oídos!!!!
One of my favourite broadway numbers (partly due to its meta-character)! Always puts me into a good mood... this performance in particular. I also found it kinda cute that Warehouse 13 paid homage to it in its series finale.
Oh, and may I add: Yay Kate Levering! She's amazing!
Goosebumps every time!
Amazing!
My first Broadway show. I remember come
*sees dance line coming for me* NOOO! YOU INVOLVE EXERCISE!
That sailor reminds me of some of my ol' shipmates who were terrific dancers !!!
Holy shit
Joel Newsome! I saw you in this show! :)
Vale la pena verlo es un buen tap dancing
NO NADA COMO BROADWAY!!
Coming home
you can buy it on lost broadway performances which i wher i first saw it
Give me the film any day
BUENO, UNA MAS!!!
I wonder if they were really wearing their taps on the street, it hurts to think how much they were destroyed or the feeling of pavement and regular floor on the subway
Paulina. We actually were in our show shoes with taps. But we covered the Taps and rubber in duct tape.
POV it's 2021 and you're looking for WowTiger2's comment
That's awesome! What is your best advice if anyone wants to be on Broadway?
wtf did this cost? to shut down the subway????
The "Full Version" doesn't begin with the 12th bar of the music and the dancers already dancing. Okay?
"full version" refers to the full version of THIS performance. usually when this is shown, the part with 42nd St ensemble entering radio city with the voice over of the Tony Award presenters is cut.
god afer hearing nominees again that was a week season
I was worried they're gonna get mugged or something.
i would have love to seen this show will someone please tell me what its about? what 42nd street was about?
@broadwaymike92 HELL YEAH!!!
And telling my mom that I wants
after doing and getting a degree in theatre i wish i had worked a great shoe like this i worked for the most successful dinner theathre in america right out of school and it burned me out, i sort of like to eat etc. have a great idea for a revivfal if any one wnats to invest lol
@broadwaymike92 we share the same dream.
Saw this 2 weeks after 9/11
Rob mars Even though I never been to NYC, I’m glad the show was able to run a little while longer after 9/11. The city definitely needed something to lift their spirits.
My mom audition ed to be A Rocket.t.
きみちゆ？
Samantha Lemes

They don’t pay performers. Much.

42nd Street >>>> A Chorus Line
