Talking Tonys: Brody Grant

Among the Tony nominees for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical are performers who have spent decades creating some of musical theatre's most iconic characters. Completely new to the scene however is Brody Grant, who has created an iconic character of his own this season in The Outsiders.
"This is really the first show I've gotten to do that I stay on that stage! I just don't leave! And I go on 15 minutes before the show starts- I'm writing, journaling, writing poetry, reflecting on my day as Ponyboy...," he told BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge. "That is a gift, because I get to have a special connection with this New York audience, which I have dreamed of performing for for a long time."
Watch as Brody chats more about how he is inspired by his fellow nominees, why his cast means so much to him, and so much more.
The 77th Annual Tony Awards will air on Sunday, June 16, 2024.

brody grant has such an amazing soul (and voice!) and it's so refreshing to see someone who is genuinely thankful and appreciative and not letting the fame get to them!!!!! I really hope he gets that tony
