Today is the day! The 71st Annual Tony Awards will air on CBS tonight (...tonight, won't be just any night), June 11 at 8pm and as usual, BroadwayWorld will be your one-stop shop for all things Tonys on Tonys Day, Night and Beyond!
Sunday Morning: Follow along as Come From Away's Rodney Hicks takes over BroadwayWorld's Instagram with updates the entire day!
Sunday, 5:00 PM: BroadwayWorld.com's live coverage will begin with red carpet photos from the one and only Walter McBride. Don't forget to tune in for our LIVE red carpet video coverage with the one and only Ben Cameron!
Sunday, 7:00 PM: The ceremony officially begins. Unless you're one of the lucky few at Radio City Music Hall, we're the only place that you'll get direct live updates of who is winning all of the pre-telecast Creative Arts Tony Awards!
Sunday, 8:00 PM: Our full team kicks into gear to bring you complete coverage. This year we'll be bringing you live tweets from our very own Katie Lynch backstage, plus Richard Ridge will be sitting down with the evening's winners following their acceptance speeches.
We'll also be bringing you live coverage of who's winning, transcriptions of their acceptance speeches, live photos from the best photo team in the business, videos of the winners after they come offstage, special surprises, fashion and more! Plus, join in on the fun by playing our Tony Awards Drinking Game (if you're 21 or older) and mute your commercials to jam along to our Songs of the Season playlist.
