Tony awards: Here’s the list topped by Harry Potter winning ‘Best Play Award’

Date:

The Tony Awards were celebrated on Sunday night where Josh Groban and Sara Bareilles, co-hosted the award show and had fun while talking to each other and poked each other saying that neither of them has won Grammy or Oscar awards, “Neither one of us has ever won anything. So this is for the people who lose,” the hosts sang.

The last award for the evening was for the Best Direction of a Play which was given to ‘Harry Potter and the Cursed Child- Part 1 and 2’.

Bruce Springsteen won a special Tony Award for his sold-out Broadway show, “Springsteen on Broadway.” He also performed “My Hometown” later in the night. Actor Robert DeNiro caused a stir while introducing Springsteen’s performance. The actor cursed twice saying, “f**k Trump.” He received a standing ovation.
