Presented each year in partnership with the Broadway League, the Tony Award is Broadway's highest honor. For over thirty years, the Tony Award presentation has been aired over CBS-TV each June. In addition to rewarding the best of the Broadway season, the programs themselves have won several Emmy Awards. The Tony Award remains the most coveted award in American theatre.

Dozens of stage and screen stars will join Emmy Award-winning host Neil Patrick Harris on June 9 to perform on this year's telecast, and to salute excellence in Broadway theatre.

The guest presenters for the 2013 Tony Awards include nominee Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Cuba Gooding Jr, Jesse Eisenberg, Jon Cryer and Martha Plimpton.
