The Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical has been awarded since 1994. Before that time, both plays and musicals were considered together for the Tony Award for Best Revival. The award is given to the best musical play which has already appeared on Broadway in a previous production, or is regarded as being in the common theatrical repertoire. The award goes to the producers of the musical. Like Best Musical, songs from the musicals that are nominated for this award are usually performed during the ceremony before this award is presented.

  1. ^ The category was not given due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the 2019–20 Broadway season. While a revival of West Side Story had opened on February 20, 2020 and revivals of Caroline, or Change and Company were planning to open in April and March, respectively, the official eligibility cutoff date for Tony consideration was later changed to February 19, 2020, shortly under a month before Broadway shut down. Because West Side Story opened too late and neither Caroline, or Change nor Company had opened, no musical revival production was considered eligible for the season. Feldman, Adam.
