Alright, everybody: it's time to watch the Tony Awards 2022 online. When you tune in, you'll see the bright lights of Broadway shining on the stars of the live stage. The theater industry is convening once again to honor the year's best musicals, plays and performers. The 75th Tony Awards will see four hours of showstopping performances from the legendary Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
The 75th Annual Tony Awards will broadcast and stream today (Sunday, June 12) starting at 7 p.m. ET on Paramount Plus and CBS.
The two-part broadcast kicks off with the first hour, "Act One," hosted by Darren Criss and Julianne Hough and streaming exclusively live on Paramount Plus.
Following that is the main ceremony of the the 75th annual Tony Awards, hosted by Oscar-winning West Side Story star Ariana DeBose. For the first time ever, the Tonys are airing live coast to coast.
The show will feature performances by this year's nominated musicals, including “A Strange Loop,” “Company,” “Girl from the North Country,” “MJ,” “Mr. Saturday Night,” “Music Man,” “Paradise Square” and “SIX.”
Also taking the stage to help celebrate the significant anniversary will be Tony Award winners Bernadette Peters, Billy Porter, the New York City Gay Men’s Chorus, and the original cast members of the 2007 Tony Award-winning musical “Spring Awakening.”
