Tony Awards Slam White People, Hails ‘Big, Black, and Queer-Ass American Broadway’

Sunday night time’s premiere of the seventy fifth Annual Tony Awards on CBS pummelled audiences with typical left-wing racial and LGTBQUWHATEVER id politics.

Ariana DeBose, who received an Academy Award for her portrayal of Anita in West Aspect Story, hosted the present. Whereas DeBose is much extra proficient than the disastrous hosts of this yr’s Oscars, she nonetheless gave a gap monologue fixated on race and gender identities.

DeBose: I am so proud that the theatre is turning into extra reflective of the neighborhood who adores it. ( Applause) In doing so, it has gained new performers, new creatives, and new followers. It has proven us tales that have broadened our world and opened our hearts and minds.

Whereas we’ve not solved all of our issues, I really feel just like the phrase “Nice white means” is turning into extra of a nickname than a “How one can” information. ( Laughter) ( Applause) And here is why: This season featured new reveals written by seven black playwrights. Yeah! It introduced us a gender-flipped manufacturing of “Firm.” ( Applause) And tonight, Lynn Nottage is the solely playwright ever to be nominated for each greatest play and greatest e-book of a musical within the identical season. (Cheers and applause) Sure. L. Morgan Lee is the primary brazenly transgender performer to be nominated for a Tony, and he or she will not be the final. Scenic designer Adam Rigg is the first out agender nominee. Composer Toby Marlow is the first non-binary winner. Wow. 

If you’re questioning what “agender” means, it is apparently a low-effort, gender-neutral addition to the alphabet soup that may even imply not caring about gender in any respect. 

I can solely think about some poor, proficient designer or actor seeing DeBose’s intro and making notes of latest obscure letters that cross rainbow mafia approval to up their probability at a nomination.

In tune with Satisfaction month, the winner of Finest Musical was A Unusual Loop. Co-producer Ru Paul launched A Unusual Loop as “the massive, black, and queer-ass nice American musical for all!”

Here’s a musical quantity from A Unusual Loop.

Refrain: ♪ What number of minutes til the top of intermission? ♪ Is that how the present ought to open? ♪ Ought to there even be a present? No, it ought to begin with ♪ what he is pondering which is only a cursor blinking ♪ explanation for all of the instructions ♪ that the narrative may go?

Usher: He desires to indicate what ♪ it is wish to dwell up right here and journey the world in a fats, black queer physique.

Refrain: ♪ What number of minutes til the top of intermission? Nobody cares a few author who’s struggling to put in writing. They will say it is means too repetitious and so overly formidable which after all makes them suspicious that you just suppose you are making an attempt to be white.

Usher: He has to combat for his proper to dwell in a world that chews up and spits out black queers on the day by day.

Refrain: Blackness, queerness preventing again to fill this cis-het all-white house with a portrait of a ♪ portrait of a portrait of a ♪ black queer face and a choir filled with ♪ black queer voices and in addition bass ♪ all ideas (snapping fingers) Which might be casting spells ♪ to conjure up a… 

Usher: Huge, black and queer-ass American Broadway.

Refrain: Huge, black and queer-ass American Broadway. Huge, black and queer-ass American Broadway.

The lyrics go onto say, “If you cannot please the Caucasians you’ll by no means get the dough. Trigger critics clinically deny us then deny implicit bias with their self-importance supported by a system that is distorted.”

Between mockery of “the nice white means” and antagonism about “cis-het whites” taking up “house,” the entire night started to really feel much less about “inclusion” and extra about attacking white and heterosexual folks usually. That is an more and more widespread sample in our post-BLM, post-Obergefell nation.

Broadway has been struggling within the wake of COVID lockdowns. Televising an awards present that speaks of pale-skinned and heterosexual folks as if their very existence was a nuisance to those that create and carry out on Broadway shouldn’t be the best way to get future vacationers and audiences to purchase tickets.

Did the massive brains of Broadway be taught nothing from how audiences have fled woke streaming providers like Netflix? On the finish of the day, reveals want folks within the seats and solely essentially the most brainwashed leftists pays massive bucks to take a seat in a theater for hours and listen to about all of the methods woke creators suppose they suck.
