Sunday’s Tony Awards were used as an opportunity for many to pay tribute to the victims of the Orlando, Fla., mass shooting. During opening remarks for the show, host James Corden dedicated the show to the at least 49 people who were killed early Sunday morning.
“Our hearts go out to all of those affected by this atrocity. All we can say is, you’re not on your own right now. Your tragedy is our tragedy,” Corden stated. “Hate will never win. Tonight’s show stands as a symbol and a celebration of that principle.”
As the show continued, Hamilton became the night’s biggest winner, taking home 11 statues, just one win shy of matching the 2001 record set by The Producers.
For the first time, all four musical-acting winners were black, including British star Cynthia Erivo, who won the Tony for leading actress in a musical for her role as Celie in The Color Purple.
Other Hamilton wins included Leslie Odom Jr. for lead actor, Daveed Diggs for featured actor and Renee Elise Goldsberry for featured actress.
