A couple of weeks ago or so, someone posted on the BroadwayWorld message board that only the Tony nominees for Best Musical and Best Musical Revival would be performing, due to the constraints of time. Now, today's press release confirms that ''Gutenberg! The Musical!'' is the only musical revival that won't be performing, ostensibly because it closed in January. (If Andrew Rannells and Josh Gad were available, I bet they'd love to do a number.)

At the 1987 Tony Awards, ''Rags'' got to perform on the telecast, featuring Judy Kuhn and Dick Latessa, even though the show had closed the previous August and only ran 18 previews and 4 regular performances. What other already-closed Tony-nominated shows also performed at the Tonys?

At the 2013 Tonys, there were TWO: ''Bring It On: The Musical'' and ''A Christmas Story: The Musical.'' ''Hallelujah, Baby!'' at the 1968 Tonys. Others?
