Eligibility

The Tony Awards eligibility cut-off date for the 2021–22 season is May 4, 2022 for all Broadway productions which meet all other eligibility requirements.[3] Nominations for the 2022 Tony Awards will be announced by Adrienne Warren and Joshua Henry on May 9, 2022. They were initially going to be announced on May 3, but were extended a week to accommodate possible COVID-19 outbreaks.[4][5][6] A revival of West Side Story that opened on February 20, 2020 was considered ineligible for the 74th Tony Awards because too few nominators and voters had seen it before Broadway shut down on March 12, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, and it did not resume when Broadway reopened.

All eligible shows are below.[7]

Non-competitive awards

Robert Wankle will be awarded the Isabelle Stevenson Award for “His generosity and service to the welfare of our Broadway community, over the past four decades and, especially in the face of a global crisis."[9] The award for Excellence in Theatre Education will also be brought back this year.[10]
