The 77th Tony Awards ceremony was held Sunday night, and if you watched, you might have noticed a familiar face.
The Tony Awards recognize achievement in Broadway productions during the 2023–24 season.
This year’s winner for best play was a show call Stereophonic, a play that takes place in a California Recording Studio and explores the pressures of success and the creative process of a fictional rock band recording an album in 1976.
Among the cast is Andrew R. Butler, who grew up in Carrabelle.
Andrew is the son of David and Eugenia Butler and he grew up in Carrabelle.
He lived there from 1995 to 2005 and went to Carrabelle High School for 2 years where he performed in a few plays.
He also attended school in Wakulla County.
And for full disclosure, I was his youth soccer coach for a number of years.
Since then, he has been in New York City where he received a BFA in Drama from NYU's Experimental Theatre Wing and has been singing and performing off-Broadway.
He wrote the Lucille Lortel Award-winning musical Rags Parkland Sings The Songs Of The Future and has performed on stage and television.
