Cynthia Erivo will host the upcoming Tony Awards, succeeding Ariana DeBose. The news was confirmed by The American Theatre Wing and The Broadway League. Erivo expressed pride and excitement, stating her anticipation for a night celebrating extraordinary performances. Both Heather Hitchens and Jason Laks praised her talent, suggesting she would bring significant energy to the event. Erivo, a Tony Award winner for 'The Colour Purple', is also on track to potentially become the youngest EGOT winner by snagging an Oscar, following her recent successes in musical theater and film.
I am looking forward to ushering the theatre community at large through a night that celebrates the wonderful performances we have witnessed throughout the year.
We hope audiences are ready to leap to their feet, cry tears of joy, and maybe even get up and dance.
