MCC Theater's annual Miscast concert is set to take the Hammerstein Ballroom stage April 3. Miscast23 will honor Emmy, Grammy, and Tony nominee Vanessa Williams and MCC Youth Company alum Lianny Toval.
Each year Miscast proves to be one of the industry's favorite events, featuring Broadway stars performing songs from roles in which they might not be traditionally cast. Performers for Miscast23 include Annaleigh Ashford (Sweeney Todd), Jordan E. Cooper (Ain't No Mo'), Lorna Courtney (& Juliet), Jordan Donica (Camelot), Josh Groban (Sweeney Todd), Jose Llana (Here Lies Love), LaChanze (Trouble in Mind), Bonnie Milligan(Kimberly Akimbo), Dylan Mulvaney, Ben Platt (Parade), Eleri Ward, Natasha Yvette Williams (Some Like It Hot), and Rachel Ziegler (West Side Story).
In addition to the live performance, MCC is partnering with The League of Live Stream Theater to broadcast Miscast23 April 10 at 7 PM ET. Following the premiere, the broadcast will be available to view on-demand until April 16.
Funds raised from Miscast23 supports its Youth Company and in-school partnerships that serve New York City public high school students, as well as MCC’s literary development work with emerging playwrights and it's Off-Broadway season.
