Stay up-to-date with the latest live updates and captivating photos from the world-renowned Tony Awards ceremony. Taking place tonight at the United Palace in Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood, the 76th annual awards ceremony will honor the best plays and musicals that premiered on Broadway between April 29, 2022, and April 27, 2023. The star-studded event will be broadcast live on CBS at 8 p.m. Eastern and streamed on Paramount+ worldwide.
At 6:30 p.m., a pre-ceremony segment hosted by Julianne Hough and Skylar Astin began streaming on Pluto TV, announcing awards for creative work such as costume design and best original score.
This year’s awards ceremony was almost canceled due to the Writers Guild of America strike. However, playwrights stepped in to save the telecast in an agreement with the union, presenting the show without a script. As a result, the ceremony will go on, albeit without a custom-made opening number, and writers were encouraged to pre-record their acceptance speeches.
Ariana DeBose, nominated for a Tony in 2018, will host the ceremony for the second consecutive year. The night will be filled with song and dance, with standout performances from the Tony-nominated musicals “& Juliet,” “Camelot,” “Kimberly Akimbo,” “New York, New York,” “Shucked,” and “Some Like It Hot,” in addition to musical numbers from “Funny Girl” and “A Beautiful Noise.”
Besides the much-anticipated awards, the Tony Honors for Excellence in the Theater will honor Lisa Dawn Cave, Victoria Bailey, and Robert Fried, while the Regional Theater Tony Award will go to the Pasadena Playhouse. Jason Zembuch Young will receive the Tony Award for Excellence in Theater Education.
Excitement is mounting, and Broadway enthusiasts worldwide are eagerly anticipating this year’s Tony Awards ceremony. Don’t miss out on the action and stay tuned for more updates and photos as the event unfolds.
