The Band's Visit was the big winner at the 72nd Annual Tony Awards on Sunday night. Not only did the show sweep the ceremony with ten wins, but it found a place in history with some of Broadway's most awarded musicals. Did you know...

THE BAND'S VISIT, winner of 10 Tony Awards including Best Musical, will open its National Tour at PPAC in Providence, RI, June 25 - 30, 2019. In Providence, THE BAND'S VISIT is part of the Taco/White Family Foundation Broadway Series.

The party's over... The American Theatre Wing's 72nd Annual Tony Awards, hosted by Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban, aired live from Radio City Music Hall last night, honoring theatre professionals for distinguished achievement on Broadway and wrapping up the 2017-18 awards season.

It was quite the eventful night for THE BAND'S VISIT. The show won Tonys in 10 of the 11 categories for which it was nominated, including the biggest prize of the evening, Best Musical. However, trophies weren't the only things to be excited about, as in the press room a long wafting rumor was confirmed as we learned that Israeli actor Sasson Gabai would be taking over the role that won Tony Shalhoub a Tony award beginning on June 26.

David Cromer has won the 2018 Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical for THE BAND'S VISIT.

On BroadwayRadio's third annual Tony Omnibus episode, we look to fill in some of the gaps that have popped up in the theatre community's coverage of the award season. So often our focus during this five-week buildup to Sunday night's ceremony is on the performers and the writers who are front and center during this process. However, today, we are talking to two Tony nominees whose impact on their shows is no less important, despite the fact that they aren't the people getting the glossy stories in the New York and theatre media. We also talk to a journalist who brings important context to the New York theatre community.

Watch below as Casey tells us all about want this nomination means to him, how he's preparing for the Tonys, and so much more!

TONY FEVER 2018! Parte 5: chi vincera come 'Miglior Musical'?

Solo quedan diez dias para la septuagesima segunda edicion de los Premios Tony, el maximo galardon estadounidense al teatro, en una gala que se celebrara en el Radio City Music Hall presentada por Sara Bareilles y Josh Groban. Vivimos un año en que la television y el cine estaran muy presentes, ya que de los cuatro nominados a mejor musical, tres adaptan peliculas y uno una serie de television. MEAN GIRLS y SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS se han llevado la friolera de 12 nominaciones cada una, mientras que THE BANDS VISIT tiene 11. FROZEN, en cambio, tan solo tiene 3, pero aun asi ha conseguido entrar en la categoria mas codiciada.

The North American Tour of The Band's Visit will launch in Providence, Rhode Island in June 2019. Exact dates and additional cities will be announced at a later date. The show's producers also announced today that a new block of tickets for The Band's Visit are now on sale through Sunday, February 17, 2019.
