Now I’m convinced: Hal Prince’s glasses are actually glued to his forehead.
I’m not quite interested enough in the Tony Awards anymore to actually sit through them, but I just happened to catch Mr. Prince accepting his (well deserved) Lifetime Achievement Award, remotely from Las Vegas.
Even here, on this rather special occasion, his giant glasses were pushed up onto his forehead, making him look like a bit of a meshugener as he delivered a brief message. It seems he is rarely photographed without the odd appendage.
All that aside, congratulations to the legendary Broadway producer and director who brought us the three best musicals of the past 50-or-so years: West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof and Sweeney Todd.
