Tony Awards 2022

Vorlage:Short description Vorlage:Infobox award The 75th Annual Tony Awards is set to be held on June 12, 2022, to recognize achievement in Broadway productions during the 2021–22 season. The ceremony will be held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City and will broadcast live on CBS for the first time coast to coast. Ariana DeBose will serve as host. With her nomination for Best Featured Actress in a Musical, L Morgan Lee became the first transgender person to be nominated for a Tony.

Eligibility

The Tony Awards eligibility cut-off date for the 2021–22 season is May 4, 2022 for all Broadway productions which meet all other eligibility requirements. Nominations for the 2022 Tony Awards will be announced by Adrienne Warren and Joshua Henry on May 9, 2022. They were initially going to be announced on May 3, but were extended a week to accommodate possible COVID-19 outbreaks. A revival of West Side Story that opened on February 20, 2020 was considered ineligible for the 74th Tony Awards because too few nominators and voters had seen it before Broadway shut down on March 12, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, and it did not resume when Broadway reopened.
