Show-Score member Evan V has had so much fun sharing his winnings with his family and friends. He takes them to see Broadway shows, even though he lives all the way in Florida. See his advice for making the most out of this year's Tony season.

Show-Score: How did you spend your winnings?

Evan V: I've spent half of my winnings so far! Last August, I treated my boss to a performance of "Waitress," treated my Mom to a performance of "Cats," and took myself to see "The Color Purple!" I also have tickets booked for "Dear Evan Hansen" in less than two weeks!

S-S: Who do you think will win top categories this year?

Evan V: I think "Dear Evan Hansen" has the lead on Best Musical, Actor, Book, and Score but I think "The Great Comet" will dominate on a majority of the technical awards.

S-S: Do you have any advice for this year's players?

Evan V: Look for potential upsets and don't always go with the popular choice!

S-S: How are you celebrating the Tonys this year?

Evan V: A Tony party complete with ballots to fill out and themed food! I manage a box office in Orlando and have been trying to get the theater to do a livestream of the Tonys for the past two years. If all goes well, the Tony party will be at the theater this year!
