The Tony Awards will go on tonight as planned, but look for host James Corden to dedicate the evening to the Orlando victims, survivors, and families. The Tonys just Tweeted as much, and it’s sure to be a somber occasion especially with so much of the LGBT community a huge part of the theater. What I’d like to see is guests and celebs talking about stopping gun violence now. How can this go on and on? It’s beyond unacceptable.
Our hearts are heavy for the unimaginable tragedy that happened last night in Orlando. (1/2)

Our thoughts are with the families and friends of those affected. The Tony Awards dedicate tonight's ceremony to them. (2/2)
