How to watch the Tony Awards from anywhere
If you'll be traveling away from home when the Tony Awards air, you can still tune into your subscriptions via VPN (virtual private network). VPNs allow you to change your device's virtual location so that you can keep up with your usual website and apps from anywhere. This option will work best for Americans who are traveling abroad since the service we've outlined today requires a US form of payment. The same goes for the Australian version of Paramount Plus. Our go-to recommendation is ExpressVPN, a tried-and-true option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our ExpressVPN review for full details, and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN.
