Tony Awards 2024: Jeremy Strong and Daniel Radcliffe take home major prizes; see the complete list of winners
NEW YORK, Broadway theatre brilliance recognised with the Tony Awards With honours for a suffragette musical, a gritty adaptation of a 1960s novel, and a 1970s rock band drama, Sunday celebrated history.
After presiding over last year’s writerless event with an intricately choreographed dance piece, Tony-nominated and Oscar-winning actress Ariana DeBose hosted the awards ceremony for the third consecutive year at New York City’s Lincoln Centre.
With an all-female cast, Shaina Taub won best score and best writing of a musical for Suffs, a musical that tells the story of the suffragette campaign.
Daniel Aukin’s best direction and best play went to Stereophonic, which won the Tony Awards. With original music written by Will Butler, formerly of Arcade Fire, and set in the 1970s, David Adjmi’s drama about a rock band recording an album broke the record for most Tony Award nominations ever for a play.
Best main actor in a play went to succession star Jeremy Strong for his performance in Henrik Ibsen’s play “Enemy of the People,” while best featured actor went to Daniel Radcliffe, who is most known for his lead in the Harry Potter film series, for “Merrily We Roll Along.”
In his play Stereophonic, Will Brill won the award for best featured actor in a play, besting two other performers. For her performance in Purlie Victorious, Kara Young—the first Black actor, male or female—won the best featured actress in a play Tony Award three years in a row.
For the dance musical Illinoise, which included Sufjan Steven’s 2005 concept album Illinois on stage, Justin Peck was awarded the Tony Award for best choreography.
Danya Taymor stunned favourite Merrily We Roll Along star Maria Friedman by winning for director of a musical version of S.E. Hinton’s coming-of-age classic The Outsiders.
Dancers honoured Broadway icon Chita Rivera, who passed away in January at the age of 91, including DeBose, who reprised her Oscar-winning performance as Anita in Steven Spielberg’s cinematic adaptation of West Side Story.
The majority of the Tony Awards were given out in technical categories during a pre-show event that was aired on Pluto TV, a free channel, and was hosted by actors Julianne Hough and Utkarsh Ambudkar.
The pre-show featured the Isabelle Stevenson Award, given to Billy Porter in recognition of his work as an activist and spokesman for the LGBTQ communities, and the best regional theatre award, given to Philadelphia’s Wilma Theatre.
For their career achievements in theatre, writer, director, and producer George C. Wolfe and director Jack O’Brien were each awarded the 2024 Special Tony Award.
Additionally, Alex Edelman for his solo production “Just For Us,” Abe Jacob for his sound design, and Nikiya Mathis for her wig design in “Jaja’s African Hair Braiding” were given Special Tony Awards.

Vivienne Jolie, Angelina Jolie’s daughter, shuts down the 2024 Tony Awards by removing Brad Pitt’s name.
At the 77th Annual Tony Awards, Vivienne, the 15-year-old daughter of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, attracted attention with her stylish attire. The mother-daughter pair looked lovely as they arrived in color-coordinated attire for the event on Sunday in New York City. This appearance follows the announcement that Vivienne had chosen to drop her father’s last name, and that Shiloh, her older sister, had presumably submitted legal paperwork to do the same.
At the Tony Awards, Vivienne steals the show alongside Angelina Jolie.
In their ongoing “War of Roses,” Brad Pitt might have certain legal advantages. However Their kids seem to have unflinching support for Angelina Jolie. On Sunday, June 16, 2024, the actress (49), accompanied her 15-year-old daughter to the Tony Awards in order to commemorate the success of The Outsiders, a project she produced that garnered a whopping 12 Tony nominations, including Best Musical.
In a stunning teal Versace gown that flowed like a Grecian dream, Angelina, who is also hosting an award show tonight, looked like a million bucks. She added flair to her ensemble by accessorising with a matching shawl. Her 15-year-old daughter Vivienne, nevertheless, might have been the true star of the event. Vivienne wore a cute matched costume consisting of a white shirt, teal vest and trousers. She was recognised as a producer assistant on her mother’s show, The Outsiders. Finally, for the evening, Jolie and Vivienne adopted a carefree “hair down, no worries” demeanour.
How Vivienne and Angelina ended up in a Broadway show
‘My daughter Viv loves theatre,’ Angelina told Deadline in a previous interview, explaining how the Maleficent actress became involved in the Broadway show. Angelina was motivated to take part by Vivienne’s passion for The Outsiders play since she could see how much it connected with her daughter. The mother of six noted at the time, “She appreciates all theatre but she certainly knows what she feels close to and what she responds to.” Jolie continued, “And then I had the honour of witnessing everyone labour over the course of the last year to make it into what it is, and Vivienne has been there the entire way.”
Vivienne disappears The name Brad Pitt
The newest Brangelina daughter to reportedly have dropped her father’s last name, “Pitt,” is fifteen-year-old Vivienne. She was listed as “Vivienne Jolie” in the playbill for The Outsiders, according to InTouchWeekly, implying that she has decided, like her sisters, to stop using her father’s name. The young celebrity has made it obvious that she is a member of Team Jolie, even though she must wait until she reaches 18 to file formal documents like her sister Shiloh did.
