Tony nominations 2016

Best and worst moments at the 2016 Tony Awards?

Broadway’s acclaimed smash “Hamilton” pushed the ratings for the annual Tony Awards telecast on Sunday to its highest level in 15 years.

“Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda’s landmark musical about Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, had its coronation Sunday at the 70th Tony Awards.

An air of both celebration and sobriety hung over the Tony Awards on Sunday, as one of the biggest hits in Broadway history was honored hours after the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.

The 2016 Tony Awards have been handed out, and “Hamilton” has emerged the night’s big winner.

The suspense over the Tony Awards is usually about which show will win for best musical, the prize with the most lucrative consequences.

The Times asked me to cite my “five top musicals,” but I don’t have five. I have 25, 100, 250.

According to iTunes, I have listened to the “Hamilton” original Broadway cast recording something like 40 times since I bought it in March, after Lin-Manuel Miranda and Co. accepted the Grammy for musical theater album.

Broadway has been good to Pulitzer Prize-winning lyricist Sheldon Harnick.

On Sunday, the Tony Awards will recognize artists who did exceptional work in the 2015-16 Broadway season.

Last year, the Tony Awards could have adopted the hashtag #TonysSoBritish.

Shortly after the news broke that “Hamilton” had landed 16 Tony Award nominations, the musical’s director, Thomas Kail, sent a text to choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler and others on the show’s creative team.

Springtime on Broadway is usually racked with strategy, stress and speculation.

The 18 million or so viewers who tune in to “The Walking Dead” each week on AMC know Danai Gurira as Michonne, the dreadlocked fan favorite whose skills with a katana have made her indispensable during the zombie apocalypse.
