Four-time Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein (Kinky Boots), two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks (Lucky Guy) and Grammy Award winner Cyndi Lauper (Kinky Boots) were on hand to announce the grand total at this year's Easter Bonnet Competition, which ended in two shows featuring original presentations, songs, dances and 19 intricate, custom-made bonnets.

The orphans of Annie and paperboys of Disney's Newsies teamed up for a dance-and-rap rumble to resolve who could lay claim to being the ultimate Broadway show about New York. The scrappy, energetic number earned them a runner-up nod for best presentation at the 27th Annual Easter Bonnet Competition - check it out below!
