Sutton Foster
Ms. Foster is a two-time Tony Award-winning performer, whose career spans Broadway, film, and television. Her rise to stardom is one of the most unique stories in Broadway history. Ms. Foster, who was working as an understudy on the world-premiere production of Thoroughly Modern Millie, was thrust into the leading role at the last minute. Rave reviews of the musical and Ms. Foster’s performance brought the show to Broadway, and she won her first Tony Award. Her performances in beloved works like Anything Goes, The Music Man, Once Upon A Mattress, Sweeney Todd, and Into the Woods, among many others, have also received wide-spread acclaim. On television, she has starred in Younger, Bunheads, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Ms. Foster is one of today’s must-see performers.
