#manifesting either a joshua or sky win PLEASE

[tending-the-hearth]

tony awards performance theories mainly going off of the fact that brody, joshua, and sky are all nominated:

mashup of "great expectations" and "grease got a hold" OR "stay gold" and "grease got a hold" (this is the one i'm mostly leaning towards since it makes the most sense) (most likely "stay gold" over "great expectations" since it features both sky and brody)

"far away from tulsa" or "stay gold" leading into "little brother" or "run run brother", which would be a really cool tony's mashup

the opening lines of "tulsa '67" leading into "grease got a hold" leading into either "far away from tulsa" or "death's at my door" (which is personally the one i'm manifesting because i will cry my fucking eyes out)

like it'd be the "as i stepped out into the bright sunlight" line into joshua starting off with "i hereby declare that ponyboy curtis" and going into "grease got a hold", then going from darry saying "you want to be a fighter, then know just what you're fighting for" into "death's at my door" when johnny sings "i had no reason to live back in tulsa"????? literally would sob my heart out on the floor (if you can't tell this is the mashup or some form of the mashup that i'm hoping for lmao)

HOWEVER they could possibly do "great expectations" leading into the final chunk of the finale, starting with joshua joining in with brody until the very end (which would also make me sob)

i feel like in some way they're going to do a full cast number, due to the best musical nomination, which is why i think "grease got a hold" is probably going to get featured (and also ofc because joshua is nominated and he's the lead in that song) (also because they're also up for best choreo), but with how much they've been using "stay gold" and "great expectations" as their promo/tv spot songs, i'd love to see "far away from tulsa" or "death's at my door" as one of the tony award songs because they'd be PERFECT for sky and brody to duet with

whatever way they go 'm literally so excited for their performance and will be watching the tony awards JUST for them <3
