NEW YORK >> "Hamilton," the hip-hop stage biography of Alexander Hamilton, was, as expected, vacuuming up Tony Awards on the telecast on Sunday, but it will not break the record for the most Tonys.
"Hamilton" went into the night with 16 nominations and with an hour to go had won nine -- best score, best book, direction, orchestration, choreography and best featured actor and actress statuettes for Renee Elise Goldsberry and Daveed Diggs.
