Here are some of our favorites...what are yours?

Neil Patrick Harris's "It's Not Just for Gays Any More" Opening Number (2011)

NPH just might be the gold-standard when it comes to Tony-hosting, giving this year's duo some mighty big tapshoes to fill.

Michael Jeter & Brent Barrell perform "Take A Glass Together" from Grand Hotel (1990)

Some of the flashiest, most memorable moments from the Tony Awards come from the shows they honor, like when Michael Jeter and Brent Barrell raised a glass (and audiences to their feet) with their 1990 performance from Grand Hotel.

Rita Moreno's speech for Featured Actress in The Rink (1975)

There are lots of emotions on display in any awards show. But on rare occasions we get to see a moment of unadulterated joy - a personal, professional and artistic triumph - that expresses itself in humility, exuberance, and gratitude.
