Excitement was high even before the event started.

We love a red carpet moment.

The first award of the night went to David Alan Grier! Many people were excited to see him win...

…but no one moreso than himself!

All of Broadway and more seemed to cheer when Danny Burstein claimed his award!

Another favorite moment from last night’s ceremony was Britton Smith accepting a Special Tony Award for the Broadway Advocacy Coalition.

One of the biggest showstoppers of the night was Jennifer Holliday’s performance of “And I Am Telling You…” and people had big reactions.

A memorable moment last night was David Byrne and the cast of American Utopia that had everyone dancing!

Another big hit was the nominated musicals performing in their own theaters for the Broadway’s Back! concert.

If you were blown away by the Adrienne Warren’s performance for Tina: The Tina Turner musical, you weren’t alone.

And like any live broadcast, there were bound to be some bumps along the way. No matter, Broadway lovingly laughed along the way.

Broadway family members, young and old, tuned in.

With so many moving duets, a lot of people were deep in their feels.

But luckily we had members of Freestyle Love Supreme to end the evening by dropping a beat.

After the 4-hour ceremony was over, many of Broadway celebrated the ceremony, the winners and of course… Broadway’s return!
