This is the Broadway production with the most Tony Award nominations of the season, 11 for the musical A Strange Loop, which already won the Pulitzer Prize. It’s a musical about writing a musical and grappling with identity desire and ambition. Nominations were announced Monday morning by Adrienne Warren, who played Tina Turner, winning last season’s Tony for Best Lead Actress in a Musical. Her co-host for the announcement was three-time Tony-nominated star, Joshua Henry.

Adrienne Warren: (00:40)
Not only are we coming back stronger than ever, but it’s the 75th Anniversary of the American Theater Wings Tony Awards.

Dave Carlin: (00:48)
A Strange Loop is in competition for the top prize for Original Musical with Girl from the North Country, MJ, Mr. Saturday Night, Paradise Square, and Six.

This special performance in Times Square Monday morning had six in the spotlight. This show picked up a total of eight tony nominations.

To be nominated is overwhelming. But what’s really exciting is, every night 1,200 people are leaping to their feet at the end of our show

Dave Carlin: (01:22)
For Best Musical Revival, the nominees are Caroline, or Change, Company, and The Music Man. The nominees for Best Play are Clyde’s, Hangman, The Lehman Trilogy, The Minutes, and Skeleton Crew. The Tony-nominated Revival Plays are American Buffalo, For Colored Girls who have Considered Suicide/When The Rainbow is Enuf, How I Learned to Drive, Take Me Out, and Trouble in Mind. For Acting, Company landed three in Teacher categories, including one for Broadway Luminary, Patti LuPone. And the revival of Take Me Out has nominations for three of its actors in the featured category. Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Jesse Williams, and Michael Oberholtzer. Revivals of Funny Girl and Plaza Suite did not feel Tony love to any great extent, each production picking up a single nomination each. In the Theater District, Dave Carlin, CBS2 News.

Speaker 1: (02:14)
All right. So much to choose from. You can watch the Tony Awards live from Radio City Music Hall June 12th on CBS2 and streaming on Paramount Plus. Congrats to the nominees.
