On a June evening in New York, the theater world gathered at Radio City Music Hall to perform its annual ritual of self-recognition — honoring those whose work has risen, in the judgment of their peers, above the ordinary. John Lithgow and Laurie Metcalf, two artists whose careers have long been woven into the fabric of American theater, stood at the center of the 79th Tony Awards: one receiving a milestone validation, the other adding a third honor to a body of work that speaks less to a single triumph than to the quiet persistence of excellence.
