[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 8] [House] [Page 10581] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]2010 TONY AWARDS: ``MEMPHIS'' WINS BEST MUSICAL (Mr. COHEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, yesterday evening in New York City, the Tony Awards were presented, and I was very proud that the play ``Memphis'' was awarded the best musical. It also received three other Tonys--for best book and best score and best orchestrations. Mr. Bryan and Mr. DiPietro put a great play on Broadway that talks about racial reconciliation and a city that has a great deal of love and a great deal of music in it that comes to the screen and won a Tony. It's a great honor; but I encourage people even more so to come to Memphis to see the original cast, where a city that is alive and breathing with entertainment and great venues for fun and racial reconciliation exists. The music, the life, the spirit, the original production. Memphis, Tennessee. Jump on an airplane. Don't get a fast train. Get your ticket for an airplane. Come on home. ____________________
