The 2026 Tony nominees are already winners... literally. For some, this marks their first nomination, but others have already won Tony Awards in seasons past. We took a look at which nominees have won at least a Tony or two (or four!) - amongst them, they've gathered a total 64 awards.

Betrayal, the acclaimed play by Harold Pinter, returns to the stage with a gripping exploration of love, loyalty, and deception. The story follows Emma, Robert, and Jerry, whose lives intertwine in a complex love triangle that challenges the boundaries between intimacy and friendship. Told in reverse chronology, the play gradually reveals hidden truths, exposing layers of secrecy and contradiction. As the narrative moves backward in time, audiences are invited to reflect on the silences, unspoken tensions, and emotional ambiguities that shape human relationships. With its precise dialogue and psychological depth, Betrayal remains a powerful and timeless portrait of the fragile nature of trust and desire.

Nearly 50 years after its debut, Chico Buarque’s landmark musical returns in a vibrant new staging. Directed by Jorge Farjalla, Ópera do Malandro dives into Rio de Janeiro’s bohemian underworld to expose corruption, desire and hypocrisy with sharp humor and unforgettable songs. Inspired by Brecht’s The Threepenny Opera and infused with elements of Afro-Brazilian spirituality, the production blends satire, ritual and popular culture in an immersive, festive experience. Featuring a large, star-studded cast the show reaffirms the enduring power—and provocation—of one of Brazilian musical theatre’s most iconic works.

The iconic rock musical Hair is back in a bold new Brazilian production directed by Charles Möeller and Claudio Botelho. Opening at São Paulo’s BTG Pactual Hall, the show celebrates the spirit of the 1960s counterculture — peace, love, and rebellion — through powerful anthems like Aquarius and Let the Sunshine In. With a cast of 30 led by Rodrigo Simas and Eduardo Borelli, this vibrant staging fuses rock, poetry, and raw emotion to explore freedom, identity, and protest in a turbulent era. Nearly six decades after its debut, Hair still pulses with youthful defiance and idealism, inviting audiences to sing, reflect, and feel the rhythm of a revolution that never truly ended.

The story focuses on the love between Porgy, a disabled beggar, and Bess, a woman seeking a better life.
