Our top picks for this year’s Tony contenders

Daniel Radcliffe stars in 'Every Brilliant Thing' on Broadway - (Matthew Murphy)

Broadway in spring has a particular kind of electricity, the sense that everything is opening at once, all vying for attention before the Tony Awards cutoff — and this year is no different.

A starry lineup — featuring the likes of Taraji P. Henson, Ayo Edebiri, Adrien Brody, Jon Bernthal and Ebon Moss‑Bachrach, among others — has powered a season rich in revivals, with fresh takes on Arthur Miller, Noël Coward, August Wilson and David Auburn works, as well as a handful of new-to-Broadway productions. Musicals, by contrast, have leaned heavily on familiar IP, with a slate dominated by adaptations of films and television hits.
