The producers of The King and I accepted the 2015 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical, and you can click below to hear their full speech!

Lincoln Center Theater's The King and I, which features a cast led by Kelli O'Hara (as Anna Leonowens) and Ken Watanabe(as the King of Siam), is directed by Bartlett Sher, officially opened on April 16 at the Vivian Beaumont Theater (150 West 65 Street). One of Rodgers & Hammerstein's finest works, The King and I boasts a score which features such beloved classics as Getting To Know You, Hello Young Lovers, Shall We Dance, I Have Dreamed, and Something Wonderful. Set in 1860's Bangkok, the musical tells the story of the unconventional and tempestuous relationship that develops between the King of Siam and Anna Leonowens, a British schoolteacher, whom the imperious King brings to Siam to tutor his many wives and children.

The 2015 Tony Awards just came to a close on CBS, co-hosted by Kristin Chenoweth and Alan Cumming, and, as usual, BroadwayWorld.com continues to be your one-stop shop for all things Tonys -- tonight and beyond!
