Charleston Stage Alumni On Broadway!

Two Charleston Stage Alumni are making their Broadway debuts this summer. Matt Shingledecker who was Joseph in our Summerstage production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat six years ago is in the ensemble of the hit Broadway musical, Spring Awakening. Matt, who also appeared as Pan in Charleston Stage’s Bat Boy, the Musical went on to Elon College where he played a number of leads before his Broadway debut this season. (Matt Shingledecker, center, Joseph 2002)Matt in Joseph                                                                                                Also, next month Barry Anderson, last season’s dazzling George Gershwin in Gershwin at Folly,  joins the cast of Broadway’s mega-hit Legally Blonde.  Barry will be playing Harvard Law student Aaron Schultz and understudying the lead role of Emmett Forest.  This time Barry only has to sing and act, no piano playing!   Barry has performed around the country including the national tour of My Fair Lady.   

 If you are in New York this summer catch these great actors in these two great shows and tell them “Hi” from us!
