    More than two dozen members of the original cast of Hamilton will reunite to perform at the 2025 Tony Awards on Sunday, June 8, to celebrate the show’s 10th anniversary.

    Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote lyrics, music and book for the landmark show, will be participating in the performance, along with Carleigh Bettiol, Andrew Chappelle, Ariana DeBose, Alysha Deslorieux, Daveed Diggs, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Jonathan Groff, Sydney James Harcourt, Neil Haskell, Sasha Hutchings, Christopher Jackson, Thayne Jasperson, Jasmine Cephas Jones, Stephanie Klemons, Morgan Marcell, Javier Muñoz, Leslie Odom, Jr., Okieriete Onaodowan, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Jon Rua, Austin Smith, Phillipa Soo, Seth Stewart, Betsy Struxness, Ephraim Sykes and Voltaire Wade-Greene.

    Hamilton opened on Broadway on Aug. 6, 2015, at the Richard Rodgers Theatre following 26 preview performances. It has since played more than 3,440 performances. At the 2016 Tony Awards, Hamilton made history with a record-breaking 16 nominations. It won a near-record 11 awards, including best musical. The show also won the Olivier Award, Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.

    The cast album, which won a Grammy for best musical show album, has also shattered records. On June 26, 2023, it became the first original cast album to be certified Diamond by the RIAA. One month ago, it became the first original cast album to log 500 weeks on the Billboard 200. (The album, which ranks No. 35 this week, is currently in its 504th week on the chart.) This year, in its first year of eligibility, the cast album was inducted into the National Recording Registry. (Albums become eligible 10 years after their release.)

    The 78th Annual Tony Awards will return to the legendary Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Hosted by Tony, Emmy, and Grammy Award-winner and three-time Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, The American Theatre Wing’s Tony Awards will broadcast live to both coasts on Sunday, June 8, from 8 to 11 p.m. ET on CBS, and streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S. 

    In addition to participating in the Hamilton performance, Goldsberry will cohost The Tony Awards: Act One, a live pre-show with exclusive content that is available to viewers for free on Pluto TV beginning Sunday, June 8, at 6:40-8 p.m. ET. Viewers can access The Tony Awards: Act One on their smart TV, streaming device, mobile app or online by going to Pluto TV.

    The Tony Awards are produced in collaboration with Tony Award Productions, a joint venture of the American Theatre Wing and The Broadway League, and White Cherry Entertainment. Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss are executive producers and showrunners for White Cherry Entertainment. Weiss will serve as director.
