It's been a few weeks since the 2018 Tony Awards but new videos are still catching our eye, like this one! Hosts Josh Groban and Sara Bareilles pay homage to the hard working people on Broadway who have to survive 8 shows ever week! Even better, it's to the tune of Sia's Chandelier...
We thought it was going to be a close race for the title of Best Musical at the 2018 Tony Awards, but it turned out to be a total roast by THE BAND'S visit, a beautiful new musical about an Egyptian band that spends the night in a sleepy Israeli town. Fall in love with the show that stole the heart of Broadway and watch these clips and interviews about the show...
This week, the utterly fantastic FUN HOME plays its first performances at the Young Vic. We've been waiting for this day since the show won big at the Tony Awards back in 2015.

On June 10 2018 the 72nd Tony Awards kicked off with a song from co-hosts Josh Groban and Sara Bareilles. It started sweet, but hilariously took a turn for the silly as they dedicated the opening to Tony nominees past and present...who never actually won an award! Watch the full, hilarious opening here...

On 9 June, the 2018 Tony Awards took place and in an undeniably epic turn of events, THE BANDS VISIT blew all competition away winning 10 Tony Awards! Yep - TEN!!! To celebrate such a significant victory for the only show in its category of Best Musical (which of course, it won) not to have been based on a popular movie or TV show, we decided our song of the week would be "Answer Me", sung live on TODAY...

Catch up on the Twitter activity from the night below.
