In recognition of co-producing the Broadway winning show for Best New Musical “Hadestown”, Mount earned his second Tony Award. Mount won his first Tony Award in 2018 for his production work on “Once on This Island” which won Best Revival of a Musical. Earlier in April of 2019, Mount also won an Olivier Award in London, England for his work on the Winner for Best New Play, “The Inheritance”. Mount is excited to announce that he will be instrumental in helping to bring “The Inheritance” to Broadway later this Fall.
