Tonys: Apple TV, Backer of ‘Schmigadoon!’ on Screen and Stage, Poised to Become Fastest Streamer to an EGOT

If Schmigadoon!, the Broadway adaptation of the Emmy-winning TV series of the same name, wins any of the field-leading 12 Tonys for which it is nominated at Sunday night’s Tony Awards ceremony — and it is the favorite to win several, including the most coveted of all Tonys, best musical — it would represent an historic achievement for Apple TV.

Indeed, the company, which produced the TV show and co-produced the Broadway production, will have completed an EGOT — wins of at least one Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award — and in a shorter timespan than any other streaming service.
