77th Tony Awards

The 77th Tony Awards were held on June 16, 2024, to recognize achievement in Broadway productions during the 2023–24 season. The ceremony was held at Lincoln Center's David H. Koch Theater in New York City, and aired on CBS. Ariana DeBose hosted for the third year in a row.

Having already become the most nominated play in the history of the ceremony, Stereophonic went on to win 5 awards, including Best Play, winning the most awards of the season. The musical adaptation of The Outsiders, which won Best Musical, garnered 4 awards in total, as did the Best Revival of a Musical recipient Merrily We Roll Along; the closest to those three shows - in terms of awards received - was Appropriate, which garnered three, including Best Revival of a Play.

For the first time in the history of the ceremony, all eight winners in the performance categories were receiving the award for the first time, with six of them winning for their first career nomination.

Pluto TV streamed the pre-ceremony broadcast The Tony Awards: Act One, hosted by Julianne Hough and Utkarsh Ambudkar. The nominees for the 77th Tony Awards were announced on April 30, 2024, at 8:30 a.m. ET by Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Renée Elise Goldsberry.

The Tony Awards eligibility dates for the 2023-2024 Broadway season were April 28, 2023, through April 25, 2024. Productions must meet all other eligibility requirements as set forth by the American Theatre Wing and the Broadway League. There are 41 legitimate Broadway-eligible theaters in which a production must be performed in to attain eligibility for award consideration. Nominations for the 2024 Tony Awards were announced on April 30, 2024.

‡ The award is presented to the producer(s) of the musical or play.

Performances

Despite receiving a record 13 nominations to become the most nominated play in Tonys history, and other plays with music such as Choir Boy receiving musical performances on the broadcast, Stereophonic was not originally among the lineup of performing shows announced on June 6, with playwright David Adjmi saying "We wanted to perform, but they weren't into it." In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, producer Glenn Weiss said, "There's a lot of speculation and people forming their own judgments and opinions, and we are trying on our show to represent the season as well as we possibly can with the time that we have." On June 12, Stereophonic was announced to be performing at the ceremony.
