Complete List of 2025 Tony Awards Nominees and Winners
The lights are bright on Broadway with the 2025 Tony Awards underway, handing out trophies to stage standouts.
The 78th annual ceremony was held at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall on Sunday, June 8, and emceed by Wicked star Cynthia Erivo, who previously won a Tony Award in 2016 for her leading role in the acclaimed The Color Purple revival.
“I’ll bring something different,” Erivo, 38, teased to Broadway.com earlier this month. “Just me being sort of very English and a little bit punk — from my tattoos and my bald head — is going to be something added extra. I promise it’ll be fun. I’m giving you a full meal.”
Nominations for Sunday’s ceremony were announced in May, with Buena Vista Social Club, Death Becomes Her and Maybe Happy Ending leading the pack with 10 nominations each. Dead Outlaw, Sunset Blvd., John Proctor Is the Villain and The Hills of California, meanwhile, tied with seven Tony nods apiece.
