The 2022 Tony Nominations Are Here

The show to beat at the Tony Awards on June 12 will be Michael R. Jackson's A Strange Loop. The show won Jackson the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and is now up for 11 Tony nominations—including Best Musical.
"When I began working on this show, it started off as a monologue I wrote for myself to create a life raft at a very uncertain time, and it grew from there," Jackson told Town & Country. "For it to have evolved and become this, what it is now, is exciting, terrifying, and bewildering—and I’m into it."
Below, see the full list of Tony nominations. The 2022 Tonys will be hosted by Ariana DeBose, and will air on CBS and Paramount+ on Sunday, June 12 at 8 p.m.
