Okay, now I'm officially pouting.

According to this article in Playbill:

The 2006 Tony Awards will not feature a host. Instead, over 60 stars will present awards at the annual ceremony, which will be held June 11 at Radio City Music Hall.

Among those scheduled to present awards include Oprah Winfrey, Glenn Close, Hank Azaria, Bernadette Peters, Liev Schreiber, Kyra Sedgwick, Mark Ruffalo, Julia Roberts, Eric McCormack, Ralph Fiennes, Cynthia Nixon, Martin Short, Alfre Woodward and Anna Paquin.

In a statement the executive producers of the Tony telecast, Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner, said, "The 60th Anniversary show is bigger than just one host. So we've put together a line-up of 60 stars from the stage to lead our celebration."

I miss Hugh. Sniff.
