It will be the third time Harris will serve as master of ceremonies. He'll also be a producer of the show.

"I'm thrilled to be a part of this year's Tony Awards," Harris said. "Not only will I be shining a spotlight on the best that Broadway has to offer, but hopefully I'll score some free house seats to a show or five."
