Raise the curtain and light the lights because the Tony Awards are back!
The event took place at New York's Winter Garden Theatre on Sunday, Sept. 26, and was divided into two acts.
For the first act, host Audra McDonald—who has six Tonys of her own—presided over the awards ceremony for most of the nominees from the 2019-2020 Broadway season.
Last year's ceremony was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, with Broadway going dark for more than a year. (Show reopenings just started in September). Tony winner and Hamilton alum Leslie Odom Jr. then hosted a special titled The Tony Awards Present: Broadway's Back. The spectacular is a live concert featuring performances from Broadway's biggest stars and the casts of the Best Musical nominees, including Jagged Little Pill, Moulin Rouge! The Musical and Tina: The Tina Turner Musical.
The spectacular also reveal the winners of the top three categories: Best Play, Best Revival of a Play and Best Musical. The complete list of this year's winners can be seen here.
"Broadway is a part of my DNA and I'm so thrilled to see it open back up again," Odom said in a press release. "There are so many talented artists going back to work and doing what they love for audiences who have missed these tremendous performances. I'm very happy to host The Tony Awards Present: Broadway's Back!"
