Best moments from Tony Awards

James Corden hosted the 73rd Tony Awards and opened the awards in New York with a live musical performance.

The night involved a fair bit of politics, a flurry of fashion and a great deal of singing.

The big winners of the evening were the musical Hadestown and Ali Stroker, who became the first Tony-winning wheelchair user.
