“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players” – this age-old Shakespearean quote might have compared reality to theatre, but being on stage itself is no joke. Actors have often recounted their nerve-wracking experiences of performing in front of a live audience, which is much tougher than acting in front of a camera. Very few have managed to dominate the troupe; Cole Escola being one of the most recent acting pioneers to have won the prestigious Tony Award.

Escola was among the select few performers who lit the red carpet on fire at the 78th Annual Tony Awards 2025, celebrating the best of Broadway.
