Tonys 2018: The Wins, The Snubs, & The De Niro

The 72nd Annual Tonys took place in New York City last night, and focused attention on more than one He Who Must Not Be Named.

Harry Potter & The Cursed Child, the onstage follow-up to J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels, won big, with 6 awards including Best Play and Best Direction of a Play. The Band's Visit, a new musical set in Israel, won the most of the night, with 10 Tonys on their trophy shelf.

Snubs-wise, Mean Girlsand Spongebob Squarepants, the two most-nominated productions this year with 12 apiece, fell short--the former, written by Tina Fey, went home completely empty-handed, and the latter only took home one award, for Best Scenic Design in a Musical. Revivals of My Fair Lady and Carousel both took home less than expected as well, losing out on Best Revival of a Musical to the lesser-known Once On This Island.

The ceremony was hosted by Waitress' Sarah Bareilles and Josh Groban, and while there were certainly celebrity moments, the show mostly remained reserved and scandal-free... that is, until Robert De Niro took the stage.

Introducing Bruce Springsteen for a musical performance, the legendary actor gave just a few choice thoughts to the audience, censored by CBS but receiving a roaring standing ovation nonetheless, saying: "Fuck Trump. It's no longer 'Down with Trump!' It's just 'Fuck Trump!'"
