FIRST LOOK: Everyone is working around the clock to get ready for Broadway’s long awaited biggest night tonight….. The 74th Annual Tony Awards. We are so happy to share with all of you this year’s set on the stage of Broadway’s legendary Winter Garden Theatre. Very small and intimate vs. Radio City Music Hall. But so beautiful. Earlier this morning, there was a private dress rehearsal for the full 4 HOUR EXTRAVAGANZA.
Tonight’s Tonys is actually the first time in 22 YEARS that the ceremony is held in one of the 41 traditional ON BROADWAY houses. The last time was back in 1999 at the Gershwin Theatre. It was also previously held in the Winter Garden Theatre (recent home of Beetlejuice and soon-to-be home of the Broadway revival of The Music Man this holiday season) back in 1975.
The photo was shared by one of its many presenters this evening Tony and Olivier Award winning legend Lea Salonga. The Miss Saigon also took to social media to express her happiness and the excitement for tonight and celebrating Broadway’s triumphant comeback.
Tune in to see Salonga and many of your favorite Broadway stars & creative live at the Tony Awards. Audra McDonald will kick it all off at 7pm via Paramount+ with the livestream of the actual ceremony presenting many of the Awards for both its Creators and Actors. From there at 9pm, Leslie Odom Jr. takes over for the full 2 hour concert edition entitled BROADWAY’S BACK. So many unforgettable live performances plus the revealing of the winners for BEST REVIVAL OF A PLAY, BEST PLAY, and BEST MUSICAL.
Who is excited?!!
