The Tony Awards may be about celebrating the best of Broadway for the season, but stars from across the world of entertainment showed up to join the festivities— including to make waves on the red carpet.
The main event took place at New York City’s famed Radio City Music Hall. Following up a homerun year that has included winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, Ariana DeBose hosted the ceremony, which included honoring Angela Lansbury with a lifetime achievement award.
