The Crest Cabaret Series presents Broadway and film star, JEREMY JORDAN, who made his Broadway debut in ROCK OF AGES in 2009 and subsequently was cast as ‘Tony’ in Broadway’s WEST SIDE STORY. In the fall of 2011, Jeremy fulfilled a childhood dream when he was cast as Jack Kelly in Disney’s world premiere production of NEWSIES at Paper Mill Playhouse in New Jersey. Following that, he earned a Theatre World Award for his performance in Bonnie & Clyde on Broadway. Shortly afterward, Jeremy announced he’d return to NEWSIES to star in its new run on Broadway. Newsies opened to sold-out houses and critical raves for Jeremy, who received a Tony nomination as Best Actor in a Musical for this star-making role. He also earned a Grammy nomination for the Newsies cast album. Just four months into the run, Jeremy would pull double duty once again, filming a series regular role on NBC’s hit series “Smash” while still starring in Newsies. After a couple months of sleepless nights and no days off, Jeremy left Newsies to film “Smash” full-time. Jeremy has performed his solo cabaret show, “Breaking Character” in clubs around the country. He reprised his role as ‘Jack Kelly’ in Disney’s live filmed stage production of NEWSIES, which opened in movie theaters in February.
