Re: Which Musicals Got >10 Tony Awards?
The most Tony Awards ever received by a single production was the musical The Producers (2001) with 12 awards, including best musical.
Hello Dolly (1964) won 10.
South Pacific (1949) won 10.
Incidentially, Rent (1996) received 10 nominations, but only won 4 Tony's that year.

And BETM actually received 12 nominations. Two were for Best Supporting Actor (Greg Jbara and David Bologna), but only one could win in that category. The other nomination that didn't win was for the musical score.

Thanks. I thought there were more, but 12 was all I could think of at the time.
