GAVIN CREEL
Gavin Creel is a Tony Award winner for the 2017 revival of Hello Dolly, and also starred recently in the Broadway revival of She Loves Me. He won the 2014 Olivier Award and the WhatsOnStage Award for Best Actor In A Musical for his starring role in London's West End production of The Book of Mormon in the role of Elder Price. Of his Tony-nominated role as Claude in the smash hit Broadway revival of Hair, the New York Times hailed him as “the pure-voiced Gavin Creel,” and the Associated Press noted that “Gavin Creel, besides possessing a powerhouse voice, brings a sweet-tempered poignancy to Claude”. Just three years after graduating from the University of Michigan, Creel was cast in his first Broadway show – Thoroughly Modern Millie – as Millie’s (Sutton Foster’s) love interest Jimmy Smith. He received his first Tony nomination for his performance. He also appeared on Broadway in the revival of La Cage aux Folles as Jean-Michel, as well as the Goodman Theatre/Kennedy Center production of Bounce, American Repertory Theater’s premiere of the new rock musical Prometheus, the New York concert versions of Hair and Bright Lights, Big City, and on London’s West End in Mary Poppins and Hair. On television he has been featured with Julie Andrews in Eloise at the Plaza and Eloise at Christmastime. His studio recordings include GoodTimeNation, Quiet, Get Out and the single ‘Noise’.
