The Tony is the award, but what's the reward? That's the question Playbill asked George C. Wolfe backstage at the Tony Awards after the famed director received his Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement. See his answer in the video above, in an interview with Playbill's Jeffrey Vizcaíno.
Wolfe has previously won five Tony Awards. The Lifetime Achievement marks his sixth prize.
