In case you fell asleep last night, here are the winners of the 70th annual Tony Awards. And, no, “Hamilton” the most nominated show ever for Tonys did not break the record after all. “Hamilton” won 11 Tonys — one less than a record 12 won by “The Producers” in 2001.
But, we must note, that all four awards for performances in musicals went to black actors. Match that, Hollywood!
