Tony Awards Celebrate Revivals and New Voices

Tony Awards Celebrate Revivals and New Voices

Author: The Daily News Now! June 8, 2026 Duration: 1:59

Tony Awards shine bright with “Schmigadoon!” stealing the musical spotlight and Apple’s latest win, while “Liberation” makes history as the first play to snag both Pulitzer and Tony in one year — and only the fourth play by a woman to win best play. “Death of a Salesman” and “Ragtime” dominate revivals with six Tonys each, and John Lithgow becomes the oldest actor ever to win a competitive Tony at 80. Qween Jean breaks barriers as first openly trans Tony winner for costume design. Host Pink delivers a high-octane show celebrating Broadway’s bold new voices and timeless classics.
