The 79th Annual Tony Awards are this Sunday, June 7, 2026. It's the biggest awards show of the Broadway season and it closes out a long awards season for Broadway and Off-Broadway musicals and plays. Which Best Musical and Best Play nominees will take home the ultimate prize?

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.

Samuel Beckett’s acclaimed masterpiece Endgame (Fim de Partida) opens April 30 at Teatro Paulo Autran, inside Sesc Pinheiros, in a new production directed by Rodrigo Portella. Starring Marco Nanini, Guilherme Weber, Helena Ignez, and Ary França, the tragicomic classic revisits Beckett’s haunting post-apocalyptic world, where Hamm, a blind and paralyzed old man, and his servant Clov remain trapped in a tense relationship of dependence, cruelty, and endless waiting. Written in the aftermath of World War II, the play remains one of the most powerful works of the Theater of the Absurd, exploring power, isolation, and the search for meaning in a collapsing world.

A new Brazilian staging of Oleanna by David Mamet opens at the Teatro Vivo, offering an intense and immersive take on the playwright’s provocative drama. Directed by Daniela Stirbulov and starring Velson D’Souza and Julianna Gerais, the production revisits the explosive encounter between a university professor and his student, as a request for academic help spirals into accusations of misconduct. Performed for just 50 spectators, the staging places audiences face-to-face on opposite sides of the action, transforming them into a silent jury. Exploring power, communication, and the shifting nature of truth, Oleanna remains a gripping reflection of today’s social debates.

Luis Bravo's Forever Tango is a mesmerizing celebration of Argentina’s most famous cultural export—its fiery and soulful dance and music. The show features twelve world-class tango dancers, a talented vocalist, and a live orchestra of six musicians, including the iconic bandoneón, the instrument most associated with tango.
