For the second year in the row Audemars Piguet was presenting red carpet sponsor.

Scarlett Johansson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kristen Chenoweth, Cate Blanchett, Daniel Radcliffe, Angela Lansbury, and
Liev Schreiber were just a few of the stars who walked the red carpet on Broadway’s most important night.

Highlights from the evening included:

The brand’s philanthropic effort "The Time to Give Foundation"
has raised $1.3m to date to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.  The check was presented during the awards ceremony by Francois-Henry Bennahmias, President &CEO of Audemars Piguet North America to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS President, Paul Libin and Executive Director, Tom Viola.

Eight solid aluminum Audemars Piguet wall clocks lined the red carpet as the nominees made their entrance into Radio City Music Hall.  The clocks were designed by the nominees for Best Musical and Best Musical Revival (shows include Finian’s Rainbow, La Cage Aux Folles, A Little Night Music, Ragtime, American Idiot, FELA!, Memphis, and Million Dollar Quartet) to represent each one of this season’s musicals.  The clocks are being auctioned off to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (www.broadwaycares.org).

Kelsey Grammer, who was nominated for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical for La Cage Aux Folles, selected an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore, the brand’s iconic octagonal design as he presented and performed at the Tony Awards.  He finished off his Tom Ford tuxedo with AP’s Royal Oak Tuxedo Collection diamond cufflinks and studs.
