Tony Yazbeck most recently starred as Cary Grant in the musical Flying Over Sunset on Broadway at Lincoln Center Theatre. He began his career aged 11 on Broadway in Gypsy with Tyne Daly. For the 2014 Broadway revival of On the Town, he won the Astaire Award, and his virtuosic performance attracted several nominations. He also starred in the Susan Stroman/Harold Prince–helmed Japan and Broadway productions of Prince of Broadway for which he received the Chita Rivera Award. Tony’s credits also include numerous Off-Broadway and regional productions, as well as film and TV.
In concert, he has appeared with the San Francisco Symphony under Michael Tilson Thomas; Carnegie Hall with the New York Pops under the baton of Steven Reineke; and with National Symphony Orchestra at Wolf Trap with Michael Barrett. He was featured in The Bernstein Centennial Celebration at Tanglewood with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and The Kennedy Center at 50, both for PBS; and he was most recently a soloist with the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl.
