Deadline’s Tony Awards Live Blog
Broadway's busy, busy 2023-24 season has been building to Sunday's 77th annual Tony Awards.
Stereophonic could make Broadway history on a couple fronts: As the only play to win an award for Best Orchestrations (it’s also up for Best Score, competing against actual musicals) and, if winning more than seven awards, becoming the winningest play ever (2007’s The Coast of Utopia, with seven trophies, currently holds the title). No fewer than 70 nominees are Broadway first-timers, including four Stereophonic performers, two from The Outsiders, Mary Jane ‘s Rachel McAdams and, at 21 the youngest nominee, Hell’s Kitchen ‘s Maleah Joi Moon. Jessica Lange, at 75, hits the other end of the age spectrum for acting nominees, with Jonathan Tunick, already an EGOT, tonight’s overall oldest nominee: At 86, he’s nominated in the Best Orchestrations category for Merrily We Roll Along.
