More and more Broadway and Off-Broadway shows have our talented alumni in their midst, some are in the chorus, in the pits, backstage and oftentimes, on the creative teams.

PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, ALTAR BOYS, FIDDLER…, HAIRSPRAY, MAMMA MIA, PAJAMA GAME, TARZAN and others have PLAYBILLS with Gateway alumni in their credits.

DON’T MISS A SHOW THIS SEASON.

YOU MIGHT MISS YOUR CHANCE TO DISCOVER
THE NEXT BROADWAY STAR!


THE FOLLOWING PERFORMERS ARE DIRECT FROM LAST SEASON!

Remember Horse, the electric “Big Black Man”who knew how to do the funky chicken in The Full Monty? Check out KINGSLEY LEGGS starring as “Mister”in the hit musical THE COLOR PURPLE.

MICHAEL FARINA, made us laugh as Bert Barry in Gateway’s 42nd Street and then, he took on the daunting role of God, yes God, in IN MY LIFE.

LISA BRESCIA asked us not to cry for her, as Evita, and moved straight to another Andrew Lloyd Weber show, THE WOMAN IN WHITE where she covered Marie at the Marquis Theatre.

During the run of the Holiday Spectacular we found out that the versatile, JARED BRADSHAW, the hilarious lead singer of the Millennium boys, was tagged for New York’s riotous FORBIDDEN BROADWAY.

JESSICA WRIGHT, everybody’s favorite fiddle-playing comedienne from that same Holiday Show was cast in B’ways critical success SWEENEY TODD right beside the legendary Patti Lupone, and could seen often as the Beggar Woman and Pirelli. She is currently an understudy for B'way's COMPANY.

Heard of the smash hit musical JERSEY BOYS? Did you hear who won the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical this year?  Why, none other than JOHN LLOYD YOUNG who plays Frankie Valli. If you were lucky enough to see our intriguing production of The Scarlet Pimpernel in 2001, you saw him here first, playing the featured role of Armand.

Incidentally, If you do see JERSEY BOYS, you’ll spot ERICA PICCININNI playing Lorraine, who you might remember as Gateway’s Laurie in Oklahoma, and Ariel in Footloose!

“Although the theater is not life, it is composed of fragments or imitations of life, and people on both sides of the footlight have to unite to make the fragments whole and the imitations genuine.”
