Tony Awards 2024 Nominations: Full List and Potential EGOT Contenders

“Stereophonic” and “Hell’s Kitchen” were the runaway leaders at the 2024 Tony Awards nominations held overnight, while there is a substantial wealth of Hollywood talent in contention at this year’s event, to be held June 16 2024.

“Hell’s Kitchen,” inspired by the life of Grammy-award winner Alicia Keys and her formative years growing up in New York, is up for 12 awards including Best New Musical and Best Actress in a Musical for Maleah Joi Moon. In contrast “Stereophonic,” a play that follows a fictional 1970s rock band on the cusp of superstardom as they struggle through recording their new album, earned 10 awards. 

“Stereophonic” also sees former Arcade Fire member Will Butler pick up a Tony nomination for Best Original Score. At the same time, there is a strong British contingent among this year’s nominees, including a first-time nomination of “Harry Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe for his work on “Merrily We Roll Along,” and Eddie Redmayne for his performance in the revival of “Cabaret.”

Is anyone up for an EGOT at the Tony Awards 2024?

No one from this year’s list of nominees will complete an EGOT this time around, but the path could be set once again for Leslie Odom Jr. He’s already earned a Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical for “Hamilton” in 2016 and a Grammy for the “Hamilton” cast album. He also won an Emmy for “Hamilton” in 2021. If he wins an Oscar in the future, he will achieve EGOT status
