Unpack the Tony Awards History of the 2025 Nominated Revivals

The results of the 2025 Tony races are very much still up in the air, but many of this season's nominated revivals have been Tony-tested before. How did they fare? The past may not always be the best indicator of the future, but accolades of years past provide interesting insight nonetheless. Check out a complete list of who was nominated, in what categories, and most importantly... if they won!

Though they were ruled as revivals, Yellow Face, Eureka Day, The Last Five Years, and Floyd Collins have not run on Broadway before now, therefore have not been eligible for Tony Awards for past productions.

Note: ** = winner
