Angela Lansbury TONY wins '69, '75, '79, '09. 

Now if only the Emmy's and Oscar's had given the same amount of love. She deserved at least one of each.

All of her honors are well-deserved. It’s incredible that she never won an Emmy for her years on Murder She Wrote.

Winning a Tony is such an honor... now imagine winning FIVE during your career! Legendary!!!

What's amazing is they loved her just as much in '69 as '09! On their feet and hollering. What an epic loss. We'll miss you, Dame Angela.

Her movie The Manchurian Candidate deserved an award! She played a much older woman while still young and she NAILED it as a scheming mom!#!!

One day this great lady of the theater will have a theater named for her what a class act she has always been and what a contribution she has made especially to musical theater ...

She is a legend.

Saw this wonderful lady in Gypsy twice in London in 1973. can still recall the ovations on her fiirt appearance and the end of Rose's Turn and curtain call. Standing ovations were not nearly as common then but she received an instant one on both occasions, Fifty years later and the memory still remains strong.

Wow, the ovations she got!

She runs up those stairs so fast. I would tripped. Such a queen

Class, grace, modesty -- not to mention all that talent. She is the best!

Thank You Dame Angela Lansbury, for bringIng Joy to your audiences. Bless you always.

Angela is so genuinely respected amongst her peers in the industry bless her. xxx

Shes one of the people who inspires me in speeches.... Gratitude and grace

Who doesn’t love this charming elegant gorgeous woman. Thank you for sharing this dazzling video. Made my world a little brighter!!!!!

Angela Landsbury. Congrats on your 5 Tony Awards. I saw Angela in Sweeney Todd Amazing

Gee whiz, she's so humble, gracious, and graceful! I love her. Angela's the best.

Thank you for posting these clips, Without youtube and you I would never have been able to enjoy the many examples of Ms Landsbury's classy, articulate speeches and enormous talents. Thank you sooo very much.

RIP ANGELA 🙏🏻 Thank you for your talent and inspiring me to be a theater kid!

This is a very special clip of a special actress. With 5 Tony's under her belt, she tied the record with Julie Harris (The Belle of Amherst) and now Audra McDonald set the standard even higher by winning 6 Tony's and she's barely even halfway into her career.

She truly is a legend. I was fortunate enough to get her autograph when she was in the production on Broadway called "Dueces " she was extremely gracious. I'll never forget the words we exchanged.

I love this lady. I first saw her in bedknobs and broomsticks when I was 4yo in 1988. It has been my favourite movie ever since. My Gpa taped it off the telly for me and I watched it so much it broke.

Love this woman.

What an incredible compilation! Thank you for caring so much about Angela Lansbury's Tony-winning history.

This amazing actress has won 5 Tony awards. Fully deserved

......I honestly wish Angela Lansbury, Betty White, and Cicely Tyson were my grandmothers. Oh the joy of being in their presence and listening to their stories. :)

It's interesting watching Lansbury's win in 1979. She was then already in her mid-50s, and she may well have thought this was pinnacle of her career. And yet, her biggest success was still to come with "Murder She Wrote". And, she would go on to win two more Tonys (one for life achievement), receive multiple Golden Globe Awards, have a major part in one of Disney's most popular films of all time, and work steadily for another four decades. What a career, and what a talent.

82 years old here. Still hope for Glenn Close to win that Oscar and another Tony too.

That first win was a validation after the movie industry neglected her talent despite her proving it the moment she arrived there

Thank you Dame Angela. RIP

she was the best i ever saw....had it all.

Lady enjoys the applause......and deservedly so! An international treasure.

I had the opportunity to see Dame Angela Lansbury in “Blithe Spirit” what a treat , she was amazing !!

I never get tired of watching Murder She Wrote! She was a wonderful actress!❤

Don't forget she won for Mame in 1966 or 1967

It was mentioned in the description her win for Mame was before the Tony's were televised.

BRAVO!!! Grand DIVA of Broadway. Her Mama ROSE was historical. I saw it 3 times and it was never the same twice. At the PALACE THEATER, where it belonged.

The toast of Broadway in every way. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

Thank you so very much for sharing! Ms. Lansbury may be Emmys biggest loser with 18 unsuccessful nominations and the Academy Awards also eluded her despite 3 nominations, but she truly is the queen of the Tony Awards and rightly so. Also her acceptance speeches are just the best. The lady is a pure class.

RIP. No words.

Ironically Dorothy Louden took over the role of Mrs. Lovett on BROADWAY in 1980 opposite George Hern as Sweeney Todd ... I saw the production late June of 1980....the national tour had not yet begun!!!

I love that after her win in '09, a Shrek-ified Brian D'arcy James just slowly enters the shot, hands clapping.

RIP to Ms. Lansbury

She is also a great legend of the theatre and I may not be a girl but I look up to her.

GLORIOUS ICON !!!

Mr. Poochsmooch, thanks so much for posting this. LOVED it.

Dear MrPoochsmooch, Thanks for creating and posting the information.

There are no longer stars/celebrities of this stature!!!!!

So classy!🏆🏆

When Tonys were Tonys.

what a great and brilliant lady!

Well you made my day; never thought I'd see the Dear World and Sweeter excerpts. Spare a thought for the lovely late Miss Louden too.

From her teens the musical theater was her home and she lived in Hollywood exile till her fuse was finally lit in Mame.

Angela Lansbury is a legend.

She's just ...the best!

She looks so pretty.

She is such a class act!

What a classy, classy lady.

There are really very few actors who you can say were 'miscast' or 'wrong for the role' - even if she was in a bad movie - she was always top drawer. RIP !

thank you for posting this...totally obsesssssssssed!

An absolute legend

Amazing!

Classy lady! My favorite!

thank, thank, thank than you for this post I idolise Ms Lansbury how she hasn't become a dame yet

People in the business loved her so much!

Happy Birthday, Angela!

She must have incredible presence.

R.I.P Dame Angela We LOve you!

That woman was hotter than a Texas heat wave.

HER HUMILITY (wow)

Epic lady!

ACTUALLY, Dorothy Loudon replaced Angela on Broadway before Angela went on tour with George Hearn (who had already replaced Len Cariou on Broadway.) I saw the original cast at the Gershwin (née Uris) then Angela and Hearn in Boston, at the Music Hall I think. This production (probably filmed on Broadway) is what PBS showed on Great Performances.

LOVE Angela xx

R.I.P. Ms Fletcher a.k.a Angela Lansbury

Sadly they don't make them like this anymore :(

What a fucking legend.

RIP Angela Landsbury

Did anyone else see Shrek and Fiona sitting behind her at 6:56? Or am I hallucinating?

Missing her win for MAME!

In Hollywood they started casting her in "mother" roles and as characters older than she was and she finally said to herself, fuck this shit, I'll take my talents to Broadway and see what happens. And THEN television for 11 seasons!

Fly High Angela

Yes, in fact you don't have to be a citizen of a Commonwealth realm at all to get an honorary title. It means that you can’t be called Sir or Dame, but can use the post-nominal letters after your name (KBE, DBE).

06:56 I like how she sits in front of Shrek

She beat Dorothy Loudon for the Tony in '79. Funnily enough, Dorothy Loudon eventually replaced Angela as Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd. I hear she was wonderful.

What is the exact year of this

i like her 60's style

Did anyone else notice Shrek sitting behind Angela Lansbury?

Wow

An English American treasure. #angela

Such a "Class Act"

Wondering which show she did to win the fifth award?

lol shrek behind her in 2009

She beat out Dorothy louden twice!

Bonafide international treasure

How did you make these recordings? Did VCRs exist back in 1969?

That is how you accept an award!! You don't stand on a soap box and tell everyone your political views - nobody cares!! You simply express your gratitude and love of the art form. Love you Angela. ❤

Why does she never thank her mom and dad and kids and husband? She never overuns ever.

Why is Shrek behind her?

No. Angela is a Dame Comander.
