How to watch tonight, full list of nominees and more

Broadway fans, get ready, because the curtain is rising on the 77th Annual Tony Awards! While most years one or two musicals take center stage during awards season, this year there’s a lot of love for all five shows nominated for Best Musical. And there’s also no clear consensus surrounding the contenders for Best Revival of a Musical — making this year’s Tony Awards all the more exciting. Nominees Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, Hell’s Kitchen, Illinoise, Merrily We Roll Along, Suffs, The Outsiders, The Who’s Tommy, Water for Elephants It is Stereo are all scheduled to perform on stage at the Tonys. Ariana DeBose will once again host the ceremony. Stars like Rachel McAdams, Eddie Redmayne and Jim Parsons will be in attendance.

The 77th Tony Awards will air on CBS and stream live on Paramount+’s SHOWTIME tier this Sunday, June 16 at 8 p.m. ET. Here’s what else you need to know:
