MAYBE HAPPY ENDING Wins 2025 Tony Award for Best Musical
Well, we’d sure call that a happy ending. Maybe Happy Ending has won the 2025 Tony Award for Best Musical. Maybe Happy Ending beat out fellow nominees Buena Vista Social Club, Dead Outlaw, Death Becomes Her, and Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical. It was among the most-nominated shows of the season, raking in 10 Tony Award nominations.
Maybe Happy Ending stars Darren Criss and Helen J. Shen as two not-quite-human robots as they find out what it means to be human. They explore love, friendship, companionship, and the human experience. Set in a near-future Seoul, Maybe Happy Ending is wholly original, with music, lyrics, and book by Will Aronson and Hue Park.
Tony Award winning director Michael Arden brought his talents to Maybe Happy Ending. The show features scenic design by Dane Laffrey, music direction from John Yun, and video & projection design by George Reeve.
