The pinnacle of the New York theater season, the Tony Awards finally arrived on Sunday night. Airing live from the United Palace Theater in Washington Heights, this year’s (unscripted!) ceremony had several fan-favorite productions in contention—Some Like It Hot, Kimberly Akimbo, Shucked, Sweeney Todd, Leopoldstadt, A Doll’s House—but isn’t the beauty of live theater never knowing quite what to expect?
In that spirit, we tuned into the show with bated breath. Catch up on all the winners at the 76th Tony Awards right here.
