Tours To You, which provides information about the touring Broadway shows in North America, has announced the winners of the Broadway On Tour Awards for the 2024/2025 season.
The second annual awards program allowed theatre-going patrons to participate in providing their vote in 23 categories. Over 260 entries were received over the month-long process.
Two new categories were incorporated into this year’s awards: Favorite New Revival and Best Makeup and Hair Design. In addition, and to add a little bit of fun to the process, a Magic Wand option was added to allow voters the opportunity to provide the name of one show that they wish would go on tour.
We thank our submitters, and send our congratulations to the winners, nominees and those who work tirelessly to provide their talents and skills in creating theatrical magic.
