Martin, president of the Broadway League, and Heather Hitchens, American Theater Wing president and CEO, explained that the shift happened in part to make sure voters have more time to see eligible shows before they vote on the nominations.
They also cited the struggles and delays caused by COVID-19 that many shows have been facing. “Due to the challenges that Broadway has faced in recent weeks, and in an effort to allow nominators to see Tony eligible shows, we have decided to extend the deadline for eligibility requirements,” the statement read. “Therefore, the Tony Nominations will now take place on Monday, May 9.”Currently, there are no Broadway productions scheduled to open between April 28 and May 4 that would have been affected by this extension.
