Which musical won the 2026 Tony Award for Best Choreography with Omari Wiles and Arturo Lyons credited?

Cats: The Jellicle Ball won the 2026 Tony Award for Best Choreography, with Omari Wiles and Arturo Lyons credited.

The choreography award recognized the movement and dance language of Cats: The Jellicle Ball, a musical revival that reimagines the Cats universe through ballroom culture. Wiles and Lyons shared the Tony for the production’s choreography.

Choreography is judged separately from Direction of a Musical. At the same ceremony, Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch won Direction of a Musical for the same production, while Wiles and Lyons received the choreography prize.

The result illustrates how one production can win in several creative categories without winning Best Musical or Best Revival of a Musical. Cats: The Jellicle Ball was nominated for Revival of a Musical, while Ragtime won that category and Schmigadoon! won Best Musical.
