The Tony Awards are being presented on Sunday with Oscar-winner and Tony Award nominee Ariana DeBose taking center-stage as the ceremony’s host.
DeBose, who also hosted last year’s Tony Awards, acknowledged that due to the ongoing strike by the Writers Guild of America (WGA), the event was taking place without any scripts.
“Award shows are traditionally written by members of the WGA, so in order for this show to go on a whole host of people had to come together in order find a compromise,” DeBose remarked near the top of the show. “I’m live and unscripted. You’re welcome! So, to anyone that felt like last year was a bit unhinged, to them I say, darlings buckle up!”
The annual event honors theater professionals for achievements in Broadway shows.
