CBS and Pluto TV will also partner to present the first round of awards as part of the preshow special The Tony Awards: Act One, with further details to be announced at a later date.
Nominations for the 2024 Tony Awards will be announced on Tuesday, April 30. The Tony Awards are produced in collaboration with Tony Award Productions, a joint venture of the Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing, and White Cherry Entertainment.
