Prizeo, the online giving platform that democratizes giving at any income level, has partnered with the 71st Annual Tony Awards, to host a special sweepstakes that gives one lucky winner the chance at the Ultimate Tony Awards Experience.

There are only 24 hours left for fans to make a $10 donation at prizeo.com/tonyawards to receive 100 entries for the chance to win the Ultimate Tony Awards Experience on Sunday, June 11-two VIP tickets to the dress rehearsal and the Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall, two tickets to the Tony Awards Gala, the chance to walk the red carpet, roundtrip airfare for two, and two-night hotel accommodations at the Sofitel New York.

Benefiting The Broadway League Foundation and the American Theatre Wing, the Ultimate Tony Awards Experience encourages fans to post vintage photos and tell their arts education impact stories using the hashtag #IWasThatKid, inspired by Neil Patrick Harris' 2013 Tony Awards opening number, written by Tony Award winners Tom Kitt and Lin-Manuel Miranda.

The lucky winner of the The Ultimate Tony Awards Experience will be announced May 30.

The 71st Annual Tony Awards will broadcast live on Sunday, June 11 (8:00-11:00 PM, ET/delayed PT) from Radio City Music Hall on the CBS Television Network. The Tony Awards, which honors theatre professionals for distinguished achievement on Broadway, are presented by The Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing.

The Broadway League Foundation Inc. is the charitable arm of The Broadway League, the national trade association for Broadway and Touring Broadway theatre. The Foundation's mission is to enlighten and increase the public's knowledge, appreciation and awareness of theatre arts; and to preserve and promote live theatre as a vital and culturally significant artistic medium.

Among the Foundation's many initiatives is Broadway Bridges, whose goal is to give every New York City public high school student the chance to see a Broadway show before graduation. Working with the support of the New York City Department of Education's Office of Arts and Special Projects (OASP), this effort represents Broadway's commitment to New York City and Broadway's future audience, as well as its workforce. This program is being developed as a pilot program with the hopes of expanding it throughout the country.

How it works:

- There are more than one million students enrolled in New York City schools.

- We are focusing on the 10th grade, which includes 70,000 students.

- Producers and The Broadway League Foundation work in partnership to provide tickets to Broadway shows for just $10 per student.

- In reaching out to an entire grade, we will eventually give every student the chance to see live, professional theatre through an annual trip to Broadway.

By bringing students to Broadway, the Broadway League Foundation is working to cultivate the next generation of theatregoers and professionals. We invite you to learn more about Broadway Bridges and the Broadway League Foundation.

As the American Theatre Wing celebrates our Centennial in 2017, we reaffirm our unwavering commitment to make the American Theatre more vital and diverse, and to bring theatre into the lives of young people across the country. Our mission is to ensure that the next generation is on stage, behind the scenes, and in the audience.

Theatre education has a giant, measurable, positive impact on the lives of young people. However, only 45% of high school students and 4% of elementary students have access to it. For students of color, divide those numbers in half. This is a crisis for the future of artists, audiences, and diversity in the arts.

We believe one of the most powerful ways to promote the art form is to invest directly in the early development and training of young artists, and to empower teachers to offer the best possible theatre education. With support from the Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation, the American Theatre Wing is bringing theatre into the lives of talented high-need students across the country. Through the Andrew Lloyd Webber Initiative we:

* Provide teachers with resources to help keep theatre alive in schools across America.

* Give under-resourced students access to top-quality extra-curricular training.

* Offer talented young people scholarships to pursue degrees in theatre.

Now, more than ever, is a crucial, meaningful time to invest in the future of artists, audiences, and diversity in the arts.
