of awards, in addition to several special awards. Starting with 11 awards in 1947, the names and number of categories have changed over the years. Some examples: the category Best Book of a Musical was originally called "Best Author (Musical)." The category of Best Costume Design was one of the original awards. For two years, in 1960 and 1961, this category was split into Best Costume Designer (Dramatic) and Best Costume Designer (Musical). It then went to a single category, but in 2005 it was divided again. For the category of Best Director of a Play, a single category was for directors of plays and musicals prior to 1960.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> A newly established non-competitive award, The <a href="/wiki/Isabelle_Stevenson_Award" title="Isabelle Stevenson Award">Isabelle Stevenson Award</a>, was given for the first time at the awards ceremony in 2009.

The award is named after <a href="/wiki/Antoinette_Perry" title="Antoinette Perry">Antoinette Perry</a>, nicknamed Tony, an actress, director, producer and co-founder of the American Theatre Wing, who died in 1946.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> As her official biography at the Tony Awards website states, "At [<a href="/wiki/Warner_Bros." title="Warner Bros.">Warner Bros.</a> story editor] Jacob Wilk's suggestion, [Pemberton] proposed an award in her honor for distinguished stage acting and technical achievement. At the initial event in 1947, as he handed out an award, he called it a Tony. The name stuck."<a href="#cite_note-tony-11">[11]</a> Nevertheless, the awards were sometimes referred to as the "Perry Awards" in their early years.<a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a><a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> The <a href="/wiki/1st_Tony_Awards" title="1st Tony Awards">1st Tony Awards</a> was held on April 6, 1947, at the <a href="/wiki/Waldorf-Astoria_Hotel" class="mw-redirect" title="Waldorf-Astoria Hotel">Waldorf Astoria</a> hotel in New York City.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a> The first prizes were "a scroll, cigarette lighter and articles of jewelry such as 14-carat gold compacts and bracelets for the women, and money clips for the men".<a href="#cite_note-history-15">[15]</a> ATW co-founder <a href="/wiki/Louise_Heims_Beck" title="Louise Heims Beck">Louise Heims Beck</a> was responsible for over seeing the organization of the first awards.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> It was not until the third awards ceremony in 1949 that the first Tony medallion was given to award winners.<a href="#cite_note-history-15">[15]</a> Since 1967, the award ceremony has been broadcast on U.S. national television and includes songs from the nominated musicals, and occasionally has included video clips of, or presentations about, nominated plays. The American Theatre Wing and <a href="/wiki/The_Broadway_League" title="The Broadway League">The Broadway League</a> jointly present and administer the awards. Audience size for the telecast is generally well below that of the Academy Awards shows, but the program reaches an affluent audience, which is prized by advertisers. According to a June 2003 article in <a href="/wiki/The_New_York_Times" title="The New York Times">The New York Times</a>: "What the Tony broadcast does have, say CBS officials, is an all-important demographic: rich and smart. Jack Sussman, CBS's senior vice president in charge of specials, said the Tony show sold almost all its advertising slots shortly after CBS announced it would present the three hours. 'It draws upscale premium viewers who are attractive to upscale premium advertisers,' Mr. Sussman said..."<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a><a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a> The viewership has declined from the early years of its broadcast history (for example, the number of viewers in 1974 was 20 million; in 1999, 9.2 million) but has settled into between six and eight million viewers for most of the decade of the 2000s.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a> In contrast, the 2009 Oscar telecast had 36.3 million viewers.<a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Medallion">Medallion</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Tony_Awards&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Medallion" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> The Tony Award medallion was designed by <a href="/wiki/Art_director" title="Art director">art director</a> <a href="/wiki/Herman_Rosse" title="Herman Rosse">Herman Rosse</a> and is a mix of mostly <a href="/wiki/Brass" title="Brass">brass</a> and a little <a href="/wiki/Bronze" title="Bronze">bronze</a>, with a <a href="/wiki/Electroless_nickel_plating" class="mw-redirect" title="Electroless nickel plating">nickel plating</a> on the outside; a black acrylic glass base, and the nickel-plated pewter swivel.<a href="#cite_note-21">[21]</a> The face of the medallion portrays an adaptation of the comedy and tragedy masks. Originally, the reverse side had a relief profile of Antoinette Perry; this later was changed to contain the winner's name, award category, production and year. The medallion has been mounted on a black base since 1967.<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a><a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> A larger base was introduced and first presented in the 2010 award ceremony.

An award cost $400 as of at least 2000, $750 as of at least 2009, and, as of 2013, had been $2,500 "for several years", according to Tony Award Productions.<a href="#cite_note-nytpurchase-25">[25]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><h2 id="Details_of_the_Tony_Awards">Details of the Tony Awards</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Tony_Awards&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Details of the Tony Awards" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> Source: Tony Awards Official Site, Rules<a href="#cite_note-rulesandreg-26">[26]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rules_for_a_new_play_or_musical">Rules for a new play or musical</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Tony_Awards&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Rules for a new play or musical" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> For the purposes of the award, a new play or musical is one that has not previously been produced on Broadway and is not "determined… to be a 'classic' or in the historical or popular repertoire", as determined by the Administration Committee (per Section (2g) of the Rules and Regulations).<a href="#cite_note-rules-4">[4]</a> The rule about "classic" productions was instituted by the Tony Award Administration Committee in 2002, and stated (in summary) "A play or musical that is determined ... to be a 'classic' or in the historical or popular repertoire shall not be eligible for an award in the Best Play or Best Musical Category but may be eligible in that appropriate Best Revival category."<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a> Shows transferred from <a href="/wiki/Off-Broadway" title="Off-Broadway">Off-Broadway</a> or the <a href="/wiki/West_End_theatre" title="West End theatre">West End</a> are eligible as "new", as are productions based closely on films.
