This morning, Tony Award winner Adrienne Warren and Tony Award nominee Joshua Henry presented the official nominees for the 75th Annual Tony Awards. The ceremony honors and celebrates theater productions that were presented in the 2021-2022 season. This year, the event will take place on June 12 and the ceremony will be presented by Academy Award winner Ariana DeBose.

This year’s standout is A Strange Loop, which leads the nominations with nods in 11 different categories. The musical, which was written and composed Michael R. Jackson, is a play within a play which centers around a Black gay man struggling to write a musical about a Black gay man trying to write a musical. Yes, you read that Inception-like line right. A Strange Loop’s nominations include Best New Musical, Best Original Score, and Best Direction of a Musical for Stephen Brackett.

The 11-time nominated musical is also breaking a glass ceiling when it comes to the T in the LGBTQIA+ community: newcomer L. Morgan Lee was nominated in the Best Featured Actress in a Musical category, which makes her the first openly trans person to be nominated for a performing Tony ever. In the story, Lee plays "Thought 1", which is the physical representation of the main actor’s insecurities and anxieties. The "thoughts" are played by several actors throughout the musical.

On the heels of A Strange Loop but also with a fair share of nominations are Paradise Square and MJ, which are featured in nine categories each. While the former is a musical that centers around the conflict between Irish and Black Americans in New York during the Civil War, the latter chronicles the life and career of pop superstar Michael Jackson, and features a lot of the artist’s most famous songs.

The theater professional committee also gave nods to some of Hollywood and Broadway’s biggest stars, including Hugh Jackman for The Music Man, Ruth Negga for Macbeth, Alfie Allen for Hangmen, Uzo Aduba for Clyde’s, Billy Crystal for Mr. Saturday Night, and many others.

The Tony Awards will air live coast-to-coast Sunday, June 12 on the CBS Television Network, and streaming live and on demand on Paramount+. You can check out the full list of nominees below:
