Try this at home: DIY Tony Awards

So just a few days before we opened it occurred to me (duh) that with the repeated references to the "two Tonys" won by the main character, Charlie Sussman, he would definitely have those awards prominently on display. So where do you get a Tony? A quick Google search reveals that replicas do not exist for purchase -- copyright/trademark issues. A few of us happen to know one or two fortunate ones who have won them, but would they be likely to loan the precious objects? Not likely. The images online suggested they wouldn't be hard to build but the set/props teams were already maxed out. So I decided to take a stab myself. In a former life I actually did this sort of thing...

We start with a scrap of 1/4" plywood scavenged from the BPT shop. The first step is to cut out the crescents that hold the medallion.
