Breaker concluded his run as Burr in the Chicago engagement of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony- and Pulitzer-winning musical August 20. Gregory Treco will assume the role in the Windy City beginning September 8.
A Tony nominee for Passing Strange, Breaker last appeared on Broadway in The Book of Mormon. His additional credits include The Performers, Shrek, Cymbeline, and Well.
