Schmigadoon! and Historic Tonys Shine

Description

“Schmigadoon!” steals the spotlight with a big Tony win for best new musical, plus top honors for its score and book — a sweet comeback after its TV cancellation. Bess Wohl makes history as only the fourth woman to win best play for “Liberation,” a bold work on misogyny and racism. “Death of a Salesman” dominates with six Tonys, including a record-breaking win for Laurie Metcalf, while John Lithgow becomes the oldest man ever to win a competitive acting Tony at 80. “Ragtime” triumphs in revival, with Caissie Levy and Joshua Henry earning their first Tonys. Qween Jean breaks barriers as the first openly trans Tony winner for costume design. And host Pink brings the heat with a wild, celebratory start — honoring the magic and grit of Broadway.
