After watching Serena Williams give the Best Performance by a Women’s Tennis Player in the 2013 French Open, I didn’t think the weekend could get any better. But since I blogged about Cicely Tyson’s performance in “The Trip to Bountiful” a few weeks ago, I thought I should follow up.
What a night at the Tony Awards.

It wasn’t just the LGBT Community that had a good night, black actors did well. Of course it helps when you have an amazing winner, in Billy Porter, who is both black and gay
