A host Broadway stars have expressed their frustration at the news that the 2020 Tony Awards will be replaced with a Grease singalong.
The lights on Broadway went out on 12 March after New York banned all gatherings of over 500 people.
With both theatre and television production coming to a halt due to the coronavirus outbreak, the annual celebration of the best US theatre was indefinitely postponed.
Instead, CBS will fill the spot on 7 June with a singalong version of 1978 musical film Grease, which originally starred John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
