Your support makes all the difference.The 77th Tony Awards have drawn to a close after a lively ceremony at which Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe was among the major winners of the evening.
The biggest night in Broadway took place on Sunday night (16 June) at the Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch theater in New York City.
Hosted by Academy Award-winner Ariana Debose, this year’s ceremony saw Angelina Jolie win her first Tony for The Outsiders, which was up for a staggering 12 nominations and co-produced by the actor’s 15 year old daughter, Vivienne – whom Jolie thanked in her acceptance speech.
Elsewhere during the ceremony, Billy Porter was presented with the 2024 Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award in recognition of his dedication and contributions as an activist and spokesperson for the LGBTQ+ communities.
Meanwhile, viewers were left confused by a surprise appearance from Hilary Clinton where the former presidential candidate made a joke about her unsuccessful electoral attempt, saying: “I know a little bit about how hard it is to make change”.
The ceremony became emotional when the Merrily We Roll Along cast accepted their gongs. “You are more than old friends; you are soulmates,” a tearful Jonathan Groff told Lindsay Mendez and Radcliffe. “I’m looking forward to watching each other change for the rest of our lives.”
