Tony Award Winners 2023: Updating List

Follow the latest live updates and photos from the Tony Awards.

The 76th Tony Awards are taking place tonight at the United Palace in Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood. The awards ceremony, which honors plays and musicals that opened on Broadway between April 29, 2022, and April 27, 2023, is airing on CBS and streaming on Paramount+. A special segment, hosted by Julianne Hough and Skylar Astin, streamed on Pluto TV before the main ceremony, during which a number of awards, including recognitions for lifetime achievement and best original score, were announced.

This year’s awards ceremony, which was nearly called off amid the Writers Guild of America strike, will be presented without a script in an agreement reached with the union. (When the screenwriters’ strike last month threatened the broadcast, playwrights banded together to save the telecast.) As a result, the show will go on, but the ceremony will forego a custom-made opening number. Writers were also encouraged to pre-record their acceptance speeches.

Ariana DeBose, who is hosting the ceremony for the second year in a row, opened the night with an explanation of the strike, calling out that she and every presenter will be unscripted for the evening. “To anyone who may have thought that last year was a bit unhinged, to them I say, ‘Darlings, buckle up’,” she said.

A performance from “New York, New York” led the broadcast; viewers can expect performances from the other Tony-nominated musicals, including “& Juliet,” “Camelot,” “Kimberly Akimbo,” “Shucked” and “Some Like It Hot,” in addition to musical numbers from “Funny Girl” and “A Beautiful Noise.”
