The 74th Tony Awards have begun, honoring the best achievements of the 2019-20 season Broadway season. The ceremony was originally scheduled for June 7, 2020, but has been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which Broadway closed for a year and a half.
The show uses a unique format, which began with an awards ceremony hosted by singer and actress Audra McDonald which aired on Paramount +. The “The Tony Awards Present: Broadway’s Back!” Live concert, hosted by Leslie Odom Jr., then began at 9 p.m. and airs on CBS and airs on Paramount +.
The final three awards, Best Play, Best Cover of a Play and Best Musical, will be presented on the prime-time special.
