Since Broadway has returned, the theatre industry has been attempting to create a better environment that is more equitable for all. To help with this, Tony Award voter committee members will now be required to complete an unconscious bias training session, according to BroadwayWorld. Committee members will have to complete the Exploring Unconscious Bias course with Vernā Myers, an inclusion strategist, before March 1.
Audra McDonald and Leslie Odom Jr. will be splitting hosting duties for the upcoming 74th Annual Tony Awards and the special concert following on September 26. This four-hour event will be in a new format to showcase theatre after a long year without Broadway, airing live from Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre.
