CABLEready to Offer Tony Awards Internationally

NORWALK: CABLEready has scored the rights to represent the three-hour 64th Annual Tony Awards outside of the U.S. and Canada, as well as a one-hour or 90-minute highlight program.

Gary Lico, president and CEO of CABLEready, noted: “The Tony Awards has a long tradition of representing the best Broadway has to offer. Unquestionably one of the great award shows, and filled with globally known stars, The Tonys will be a fantastic addition to the entertainment side of our program collection.” 

This year’s event takes place June 13. Last year, the event, honoring Broadway productions, delivered an 11-percent ratings increase on the previous year in its broadcast on CBS.
