The 2020 (Might Have Been) Tony Awards - The Winners!

None of us expected the 2019-2020 season to end up the way it did, of course. But as they say, the show must go on. With that in mind, we wanted to celebrate what we did have instead of wallowing over everything we missed. Thus began The 2020 (Might Have Been) Tony Awards. What was cool about it was that so many of you responded with nominations and just short of 1300 of you voted for the winners! (I don't know about you, but I've always wanted to be a Tony voter...) And it was nice to add a few much needed categories (Best Ensemble!!!).

Twelve shows went home winners, and I feel like there were a couple of surprises, and an actual tie! The shows with multiple wins are: Moulin Rouge! - 11, The Inheritance - 4, Jagged Little Pill - 2, and A Christmas Carol - 2.



And now, presented in the same order as the 2019 telecast....
