'The Band's Visit,' 'Angels in America' and 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' win big at Tonys

Andrew Garfield and Tony Shalhoub were among the night's winners.

Legendary actress Glenda Jackson won for Best Leading Actress in a Play for "Three Tall Women," and Nathan Lane walked off with Best Featured Actor in a Play honors for "Angels in America."

The AIDS-themed drama "Angels in America" also copped six awards, including best play revival, as well as Best Leading Actor in a Play honors for Andrew Garfield, who ended his acceptance speech by declaring, "Bake a cake for anyone who wants a cake" -- a reference to the recent Supreme Court ruling in favor of a bakery owner who refused to design a cake for a gay couple.

The politically charged evening was highlighted by Robert De Niro, there to introduce Bruce Springsteen's performance of "My Hometown," delivering a profanity-laced stab at President Donald Trump.

“I just want to say one thing -- F--- Trump,” De Niro said. “It’s no longer down with Trump. It’s f--- Trump,” he said, drawing loud cheers from the audience.

Several other artists also aired their views, including Best Featured Actress in a Musical winner for "Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Carousel," Lindsay Mendez, who capped off her speech by saying she was "proud to be part of a community that celebrates diversity," adding, "To all you artists out there, just be true to yourself and the world will take note."

A touching moment occurred when it was announced that in a pre-awards ceremony, Melody Herzfeld, head of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School Drama Department received the Excellence in Theater Education Award. The school's drama students followed with a performance of "Seasons of Love," from the Tony-winning musical "Rent." The Parkland, Florida, high school was the site of a mass shooting in February that claimed the lives of 17 people and injured more than a dozen others.

Another rock legend, Billy Joel, was also on hand to present Springsteen with a special Tony for "Springsteen Live on Broadway."

The show was hosted by Josh Grobin and Sara Bareilles, who opened with a tongue-in-cheek song aimed at consoling the evening's losers. Later, they performed a number bemoaning the grueling Broadway schedule, sung to the tune of Sia's "Chandelier."
