Neil Patrick Harris – Tony Awards Opening Number

Showtunes. Lame, right? Er, no, actually. Neil Patrick Harris demonstrates talent here at the 2013 Tony Awards show that puts just about every other performing artist to shame.

This has more energy than any rock band could hope to display, tongue-twisting lyricism that puts hip-hop acts to shame... Oh, and he's acting, dancing, changing costumes, doing magic tricks and making about five separate entrances as well. He also finds time to ensure Mike Tyson hits his mark properly.

This man is a king among kings, as the extended standing ovation makes clear.
