Broadway veterans Neil Patrick Harris Susan Lucci, and Constantine Maroulis will be among the presenters for the 34th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards, which will be bestowed in Los Angeles on Friday, June 15.

As previously reported, Ricky Paull Goldin, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Rosie O’Donnell, Michael Park, and Heather Tom — all of whom have starred on Broadway — are among this year’s nominees. O’Donnell was nominated for Outstanding Talk Show Host along with her former co-hosts from ABC’s The View, Joy Behar, Elizabeth Hasselback, and Barbara Walters.

Goldin, who co-starred with O’Donnel in the most recent Broadway revival of Grease, was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor for his role as Gus Altaro on Guiding Light. Park — who appeared in the Roundabout’s revival of Little Me — was nominated in the same category for his portrayal of Jack Synder on As the World Turns.

Goldsberry, who was the original Nettie in The Color Purple, and Tom, last seen on Broadway in the ill-fated Prymate, are both nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress for their respective roles on One Life to Live as Evangeline Williamson and Kelly Cramer.
