The stars will be out Sunday evening in the city for the 72nd Tony Awards — and NY1 has you covered to get you up to date for the annual awards honoring the best of Broadway's 2017-2018 season.

WHEN AND WHERE ARE THE TONYS?

The Tonys will take place at Radio City Music Hall at 8 p.m.

IS THERE A RED CARPET SHOW?

Yes, and NY1 spoke to some of the biggest Broadway stars and the hottest fashion from outside Radio City Music Hall with our two-hour Live Red Carpet to the Tonys show. Here are some of the highlights:

 

WHO WILL HOST THE AWARDS CEREMONY?

Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban will host the Tonys. They're not giving away the secrets for their performances, but they did give one hint: Expect material that will feel familiar, but with a twist.


WHO WILL PERFORM AT THE TONYS?

You can expect to see musical performances from Bruce Springsteen, "The Band's Visit," "My Fair Lady," "Mean Girls," "SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical," the company of "Summer: The Donna Summer Musical." The company of "Dear Evan Hansen" is slated to perform for the in memoriam section.


HOW CAN I CATCH UP ON THE NOMINEES?

You can watch "On Stage"'s "Road to the Tonys" special to get an overview of the best of Broadway this past season, interviews with some of the nominees and creative minds behind the shows, as well as a feature on the New York City dry cleaners that will receive a special Tony Award.

You can also take a deeper look with our expert panel's predictions and reflections on the Broadway season.
