See all the winners at the 2024 Tony Awards (original) (raw)
This year when the Tony Award nominations were announced, questionable choices were made. Specifically the omission of crowd-pleaser The Wiz. It didn't even get a nod for Best Revival of a Musical, which had some room to spare. Meanwhile, nominating the costume design for Appropriate, which is just a series of Kohl's by way of J. Crew fits was also a choice, but hey! It's the theater.
Broadway baby-turned-Oscar-winning-movie-star Ariana DeBose returned for the third year in a row to host the festivities live from Lincoln Center's David H. Koch Theater on Sunday, June 16, and airing at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS and Paramount+.

Stereophonic entered the night with the most nominations of any play... ever, with 13 in total. David Adjmi's Fleetwood Mac circa _Rumours_-esque play garnered five acting nominations for its cast, all in the Featured Role in a Play categories. In the end, only one emerged victorious, with Will Brill walking away with the Best Actor in a Featured Role, among Stereophonic's five wins, including Best Play.
Alicia Keys' debut musical Hell's Kitchen also nabbed 13 Tony nods, tying with Stereophonic as the two most nominated shows of the night. Newcomer Maleah Joi Moon won Best Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical for her Broadway debut, though the show lost Best Musical to The Outsiders.
Sarah Paulson took time out of her busy film and TV schedule to return to her first Broadway role in 13 years, blowing the roof off the Hayes Theater eight shows a week in Appropriate. She won her first Tony tonight, Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Play, and Appropriate won Best Revival.
Two other seasoned Broadway vets turned first-time winners, Daniel Radcliffe and Jonathan Groff, won for their roles in the Sondheim musical revival Merrily We Roll Along. Meanwhile, Succession's Jeremy Strong added yet another acting accolade to his trophy wall, the Best Actor in a Leading Role Tony for the Ibsen revival An Enemy of the People.
