When Cynthia Erivo steps into a room, the energy shifts. The Tony-winning performer has become one of entertainment's most magnetic forces.

Cynthia Erivo, fresh off the box office success of “ Wicked ,” will command center stage on Broadway’s biggest night as host of the 78th Tony Awards.

Cynthia Erivo will host the 2025 Tony Awards and might defy the odds by being a certified EGOT when she does so this spring.

Erivo is only an Oscar away from EGOT status — she won a Tony in 2016 for her performance as Celie in “The Color Purple,” a Grammy for musical theater album for the same role and a Daytime Emmy for a performance on NBC’s “Today” show with “The Color Purple” cast.

Multi-award-winning star Cynthia Erivo will lead Broadway’s biggest night, airing live on CBS on June 8, 2025.

Erivo, who was nominated for an Oscar for her portrayal of Elphaba in the “Wicked” film adaptation, will host the Tony Awards from Radio City Music Hall on June 8, The New York Times reported.
