Competing against themselves this year, the seven time Tony-winning team of Fisher and Eisenhauer are honored again for working with George C. Wolfe, who helped them on to a Tony and Drama Desk win with Bring in 'Da Noise, Bring in 'Da Funk. Other credits with Wolfe include Angels in America, Jelly's Last Jam and Twilight Los Angeles: 1992. Ragtime and Cabaret both netted Eisenhauer Tony nominations (she and Mike Baldassari designed Cabaret), but not wins. The only lighting designers up for Tonys this year who got in on the millennial craze, Fisher and Eisenhauer lit the New Year's Eve 2000 ball drop in Times Square.

Since his Broadway debut as Riff Raff in the Tony-nominated revival of The Rocky Horror Show, Raul Esparza has become a dominating presence on the New York theatrical scene. His performance in tick, tick...BOOM!, written by and based on the life of the late Rent composer Jonathan Larson, received glowing notices, and the Delaware born actor who was raised in Miami followed that performance with another critically-hailed run, playing the pansexual Emcee in the Roundabout Theatre Company's mounting of Cabaret. In fact, during his initial Cabaret engagement, The New York Times exclaimed, "Anyone who has ever wondered how a Broadway star is born can watch it happening to Raul E. Esparza." Currently, Esparza is doing double duty at the Kennedy Center's Sondheim Celebration: By day he is rehearsing for the Center's upcoming production of Merrily We Roll Along — he will play lyricist Charley Kringas — and by night he is starring opposite Melissa Errico in the title role of Sunday in the Park with George. Esparza spoke to Playbill On-Line's Andrew Gans about past successes, plans for the future — and the many colors used to create Sunday in the Park and Merrily in DC.

It’s a rare occasion when both of a show’s leading performers win Tony Awards and it’s only happened 19 times in history.
