Okay, maybe not, and there are certain categories whose outcomes feel preordained.
But there are just as many races — and a few really big races at that — that feel like anything could happen. Perhaps fittingly for a season so chaotically crowded with a diverse array of work, this year, the Tonys are full of competitions pulling voters in two (or more) directions at once. Best musical? It’ll be one of two — but which one is anybody’s guess? Lead actor in a play? It’s a close one.
Best score? Just throw a dart at the nominees list; you’re just as likely to be right as any other prognosticator. Making predictions this year feels like a fool’s game, even more than usual. Let’s play.
The 77th Tony Awards promise an exciting ceremony hosted by the talented and charismatic Ariana DeBose, an Oscar-winning actress known for her dynamic performances. The event will be broadcast on CBS from the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center on Sunday, June 16.

“Merrily We Roll Along” was already a “surefire, genuine, walk-away blockbuster, lines down to Broadway, boffola, sensational, box office lalapalooza, gargantuan hit” and now it has the Tony Awards to prove it.The first Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s infamous flop (seriously — the original production played just 16 performances in 1981) took home four statuettes at 2024 Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Musical and a long awaited Best Orchestrations award for Jonathan Tunick (Sondheim’s orchestrator of choice, who has never won a Tony for his work with Sondheim before now).Perhaps ‘Merrily’s most triumphant moments at the Tonys were in the acting categories; first, Daniel Radcliffe won his first Tony in the Featured Actor category (and accepted it from future Charley Kringas Ben Platt!), then Jonathan Groff took home his first Tony Award for Best Lead Actor in a Musical. The pair were visibly emotional during each other’s wins, both of which have been a long time in the making.

Gordon Cox Theater Editor There were a whole lot of sure things heading into the 2024 Tony Awards ceremony — “Stereophonic,” “Merrily We Roll Along,” Daniel Radcliffe. But this year’s full list of winners had room for some unexpected twists and turns, too. You want snubs? You want surprises? Find ’em right here.
Lexi Carson The third time’s the charm. Jonathan Groff has won his first Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical for “Merrily We Roll Along.” Groff played Franklin Shepard alongside Lindsay Mendez and Daniel Radcliffe who also won his first Tony Award at the 77th Annual Tony Awards, which Groff was also in tears over when Radcliffe thanked him in his speech. Groff’s “Merrily We Roll Along” was his third nomination.
Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe winner Sarah Paulson is now the proud new owner of a Tony, too. The actress best known for her work in the American Horror Story franchise took home the gold Sunday for Best Actress in a Play for her work in Appropriate.“As a young actress I remember seeing Janet McTeer burst on the stage in A Doll’s House in the very theater I am currently living in,” said Paulson about doing Appropriate at the Belasco Theatre in NYC. “And some nights when I’m backstage I think about the indelible impact of her. I think about the walls of theaters all over this magical town holding the impact of each and every one of you in this room, and all of those who came before and I think how lucky those walls are to bear witness to the relentless interrogation of human experience that we endeavor to explore nightly for each other, to give back to one another with the hope of finding some shared path towards the truth about being alive. This is the heart and soul of what we do, and I am so honored to be amongst you.”
