Item Description

Win two (2) tickets to The Prom on Broadway and meet Tony nominated actor Christopher Sieber!  The tickets in this prize are available for select performances of The Prom; see special notes section below.

About the show:

What happens when four stars leave the bright lights of Broadway and insert themselves into a small-town controversy making national headlines?  Big drama.  Bigger laughs.  And the biggest musical showstopper in years! Directed by Tony Award winning director Casey Nicholaw and starring Tony Award nominee Brooks Ashmanskas (Something Rotten!), Tony Award winner Beth Leavel (The Drowsy Chaperone) and two-time Tony Award nominee Christopher Sieber (Shrek).

Synopsis:

The musical tells the story of an Indiana high schooler barred from bringing her girlfriend to the prom—and the group of eccentric Broadway folk who infiltrate the town in an earnest, misguided attempt to fight the injustice.

Christopher Sieber made his Broadway debut along side Susan Eagan in TRIUMPH OF LOVE also starring Betty Buckley and F Murray Abraham.  He went on to play such iconic roles as Gaston in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST at the Lunt Fontaine Theatre; Rapunzel’s Prince with Vanessa Williams and John McMartin in the revival of INTO THE WOODS; Trevor Graydon in THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLE with Sutton Foster and Gavin Creel; and Billy Flynn in CHICAGO on five separate occasions.

Christopher was then cast by Mike Nichols to originate the role of Sir Dennis Galahad in MONTY PYTHONS SPAMALOT, with David Hyde Pierce, Hank Azaria, Christian Borle, and Sara Ramirez, earning him his first Tony nomination.  He also opened the show with Tim Curry in London’s Palace Theatre in the West End. From there, he originated the role of Lord Farquaad in SHREK THE MUSICAL again with Sutton Foster and Brian D’arcy James, earning his second TONY nomination as well as the Drama Desk, Outer Critics, and Drama League awards.
