The 70th Tony Awards held at New York's Beacon Theatre on the night of 12 June (Sunday) saw Lin-Manuel Miranda's blockbuster hip-hop musical Hamilton win 11 awards from 16 nominations, which is just one award shy of the record held by The Producers. The Humans, The Color Purple and A View From the Bridge were the other big winners of the night.

First time host James Corden opened the show with a message for the Orlando victims.

"Our hearts go out to all of those affected by this atrocity," Corden said, according to Hollywood Reporter. "You're not on your own. Your tragedy is our tragedy. Hate will never win. We have to make sure of that. Tonight's show stands as a symbol of that principle."
