Tony Award winner Leslie Odom Jr. and Katharine McPhee host 2018 Tony Award nominations




It’s always a treat to wake up early and have someplace fun to go.  This morning it was the live nominations of the 2018 Tony Awards hosted by Leslie Odom Jr. who took home the Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical for his portrayal of Alexander Hamilton’s longtime rival — and eventual killer — Aaron Burr in “Hamilton” and "Waitress" actress Katharine McPhee.

Also in attendance was David Henry Hwang, Chairman of the American Theatre Wing; Heather Hitchens, President & CEO of the American Theatre Wing; Thomas Schumacher, Chairman of The Broadway League and Charlotte St. Martin, President of The Broadway League.

2018 marks 72 years. The Live Tony Awards announcement was sponsored by IBM. To follow up on everything about the upcoming Tony season go to www.TonyAwards.com and www.Facebook.com/TheTonyAwards.
