On Sunday night, Young won her second Tony Award for best actress in a featured role in a play for the show Purpose, in which she plays Aziza, a social worker from Harlem. The victory marked the first time that a Black performer has won a Tony Award two years in a row. Young has been nominated for four consecutive years.

Stars of the stage showed up in droves on Sunday for the 78th Annual Tony Awards, which saw nearly three dozen Broadway shows nominated across 26 categories.

Kara Young has already made Tony Award history by becoming the first Black person to receive Tony acting nominations in four consecutive years.
