Tony Award Nominations 2024: ‘Stereophonic’ — in a record-breaking performance for a play — and ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ lead the way with 13 nods each, while stars such as Rachel McAdams, Jeremy Strong and Jessica Lange are also up for prizes

“Stereophonic,” a three-hour barnburner about the combustible collaboration of a 1970s rock band, set a Tony Awards record for the most nominations by a play with 13 on Tuesday morning.
The David Adjmi-penned production, featuring songs from former Arcade Fire member Will Butler, tied the Alicia Keys jukebox musical “Hell’s Kitchen” for the most nominations on the day as Broadway recognized the best of the 2023-2024 season during an announcement hosted by actors Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Renée Elise Goldsberry.
Several major Hollywood stars were included among the year’s nominees. Daniel Radcliffe earned his first Tony nomination for his supporting turn in “Merrily We Roll Along,” while Eddie Redmayne, who already has an Oscar and a Tony on his mantelpiece, was recognized for his performance as the malevolent emcee in “Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.” The “Cabaret” revival was a sensation in London’s West End and has commanded sky-high ticket prices here, but American critics were more mixed. Still, the show earned an impressive nine nominations, including a nod for best musical revival and for Redmayne’s co-star Gayle Rankin.
The ceremony will be hosted by Ariana DeBose on June 16 at the Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater and broadcast on CBS.
