\n2025 Regional Theatre Tony Award<\/h1>\n

The Tony Awards Administration Committee has announced that, based on the recommendation of the American Theatre Critics Association, The Muny will be the recipient of the 2025 Regional Theatre Tony Award. The honor, recognizing a regional theatre company that has displayed a continuous level of artistic achievement contributing to the growth of theatre nationally, is accompanied by a grant of $25,000, made possible by City National Bank.
\n\u201cWe are thrilled to honor The Muny with this year\u2019s Regional Theatre Tony Award,\u201d said Jason Laks, president of The Broadway League, and Heather Hitchens, president & CEO of The American Theatre Wing. \u201cFor over a century, The Muny has been a cultural cornerstone of St. Louis, producing first-class musicals in a setting unlike any other. With a deep commitment to accessibility, offering over 100,000 free tickets each season, and career development programs that nurture future theatre professionals, The Muny exemplifies the spirit of this award. We are proud to celebrate a beloved American institution dedicated to one of our nation\u2019s most treasured art forms.\u201d
\nNow entering its 107th season in St. Louis, The Muny is a nonprofit committed to producing exceptional musical theatre that is accessible to all, while continuing its remarkable tradition in Forest Park. As the nation\u2019s oldest and largest outdoor musical theatre, The Muny welcomes more than 300,000 patrons each summer for seven world-class productions under the stars.
\n\u201cWe have had the unique privilege of enriching millions of lives over the past 107 years \u2014 often providing a first taste of the magic of live theatre,\u201d said Muny President & CEO Kwofe Coleman. \u201cIt is gratifying to be recognized by our peers for the work we have done and will continue to do into the next century. We can\u2019t wait to celebrate this tremendous honor with our subscribers, Muny Guarantors and patrons in a few short weeks.\u201d
\nThe Muny \u2014 the Municipal Theatre Association of St. Louis \u2014 is truly alone in its greatness. Each production is built from the ground up \u2014 cast, directed, choreographed, rehearsed, designed, built and orchestrated \u2014 right here in St. Louis, making The Muny an unparalleled musical theatre destination for audiences and artists alike.
\n\u201cThe beautiful honor really goes to the generations of artists, craftspeople and administrators who have worked tirelessly to create great musical theatre for the people of St. Louis,\u201d said Muny Artistic Director & Executive Producer Mike Isaacson. \u201cIt is deeply moving and powerful to have their work honored by The Broadway League, The American Theater Wing and The American Theatre Critics Association.\u201d
