The cast of the revival includes Eva Noblezada, an actress which was nominated as the best actress, which led the performance as they have performed the “This is the Hour” and “I’d Give My Life For You.”

Yuko Takahashi did her make up.

Salonga shared to the Spectrum News how thrilled she was to be a part of the Tony’s this year, she stated that before the show began in a red carpet.

She indicated, “I’m thrilled about that I get to introduce Miss Saigon’s number. Their presentation is fantastic. I’m looking forward to just watching Kevin Spacey kill it. I saw his dress rehearsals tonight and he was doing so amazingly well. I’m looking forward to all the best musical nominees making their presentations.”

She admitted how nervous she was hours before the show in 1991 that she even stated, “I think there’s nerves. You’re trying to appreciate every single moment that’s happening but at the same time, there’s lump in your throat because you know you’re up for awards. Those who are actually up for awards early in the evening are luckier because they get that out the away and just enjoy the rest of the night.”
