Bryan Cranston and Audra McDonald were the toast of the 2014 Tony Awards.
Stars gathered at New York’s Radio City Music Hall Sunday night to celebrate the year’s most riveting theatre performances.
Bryan, fresh off the finale of his hit TV show Breaking Bad, scooped the prize for best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Play for his performance in Broadway’s All the Way, which also topped Act One, Casa Valentina, Mothers and Sons and Outside Mullingar to win Best Play.
Audra McDonald meanwhile took home the Tony for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Play for her work in Lady Day at Emerson's Bar & Grill.
It was a history-making win for the star, who has now earned more Tonys than any actor at six.
Other big winners included Jesse Mueller, who took home Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical for Beautiful — The Carole King Musical; and Neil Patrick Harris, who took home Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical for Hedwig and the Angry Inch, also the winner of Best Revival of a Musical.
A Gentleman's Guide to Love & Murder took home the coveted prize for Best Musical.
The show also featured performances from Patti LaBell, Gladys Knight, Fantasia and the cast of After Midnight, who were joined by host Hugh Jackman for a tap number to kick off the show.
"Wolverine in tap shoes, you don't see that at Comic Con," the X-Men actor and stage star mused.
