On Sunday, May 13th, the Tony Awards Film Series featured two films, "Carol Channing: Larger Than Life," and "Oklahoma!"

Guests attending the screening of "Carol Channing: Larger Than Life" were encouraged to come dressed as the Broadway legend for a fun and interactive Carol Channing Look-A-Like Contest. View photos of the screenings below!

"Carol Channing: Larger Than Life" is the story of Tony Award-winning and legendary performer Carol Channing, whose life is as colorful as the lipstick on her big, bright smile. Director Dori Berinstein (Show Business, Gotta Dance), with co-writer Adam Zucker, captures the magic and vivacity of the 90-year-old – both onstage and off…past and present. The film is both an intimate love story and a rarefied journey inside Broadway's most glamorous era. It is, above all, a look at an inspiring, incomparable and always entertaining American Legend. The DVD of "Carol Channing: Larger Than Life," featuring exclusive extras, will be available on May 22nd.

"Oklahoma!," the classic Broadway musical seen in an Emmy Award-winning film version features some of Rodgers & Hammerstein's greatest compositions including: Oh What a Beautiful Morning, Surrey With the Fringe on Top and People Will Say We're In Love. The film of the London stage revival stars Hugh Jackman, Maureen Lipman, Shuler Hensley and Josefina Gabrielle.
