Tony Award Nominations: ‘Hell’s Kitchen’, ‘Stereophonic’ Lead With 13

Hell’s Kitchen, Alicia Keyes bio-musical, and David Adjmi’s Stereophonic, the roman a clef with music that bears more than a striking resemblance to Fleetwood Mac and the recording of the classic Rumours album received more nominations than any other production of the 2023-24 Broadway season. Each of those shows took 13 nominations this morning.

Coming in third was The Outsiders (at 12 noms), and followed by Cabaret (9) and Appropriate (8).

See the complete breakdown by number of nominations below.

The first six batches of select Tony Award nominees were announced on CBS Mornings at 8:30 a.m./ET. The remainder were announced at 9 p.m. ET on the Tony’s YouTube channel.

The 77th Tony Awards will be held on June 16 at Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater in New York City, airing on CBS. Ariana DeBose will host for a third consecutive year.
