How to watch the Tony Awards – on TV and online

June 10, 2018

NEW YORK — The Tony Awards, Broadway’s biggest night is just around the corner. Musicians Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban will host the 72nd Tony Awards on Sunday, June 10. Though the two have never hosted the Tonys before, they’re no strangers to Broadway.

Bareilles, who starred in “Waitress” on Broadway, was nominated for a Tony for its score in 2016, and Groban landed a Tony nod last year for his role in “Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812.”

It’s still a mystery how Bareilles and Groban will open the show, though “CBS This Morning” co-host Gayle King pressed them for details. Groban claimed, “It’s just going to be a lot of standing around awkwardly.”

Bareilles is nominated for a Tony again this year, for a song she wrote for “SpongeBob SquarePants.”
