Broadway's best and brightest will shine when you watch the Tony Awards 2023 online. The theater industry is convening once again to honor the year's best musicals, plays and performers. The 76th Tony Awards will be hosted again by Oscar winner Ariana DeBose.
The 76th Annual Tony Awards will broadcast and stream Sunday (June 11), starting at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount Plus.
Due to the Writers Guild of America strike, the ceremony will be completely unscripted, so DeBose and other presenters will make up stage banter on the spot.
The show will feature performances by this year's nominated musicals, including Camelot, Into The Woods, & Juliet, Kimberly Akimbo, New York, New York, Parade, Shucked, Some Like It Hot and Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
Also scheduled is a special performance for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre recipients Joel Grey and John Kander.
