With Lewis known for starring roles in over 13 Broadway productions including The Gershwins’ Porgy & Bess( Tony nom.), The Phantom of the Opera, Once On This Island and more, this leading powerhouse is ready to bring his talent and charm to the high seas.

We caught up with Lewis to talk about the upcoming trip, his connection to Seth, and what fans can expect from this unique Broadway adventure.

What are you most excited about for Seth Rudetsky’s Broadway Cruise to Iceland, and what do you hope to experience while on board?
Norm Lewis: I am so excited for getting to work with Seth again, as well as connecting with the fans! (and Iceland, of course!)

Seth is known for his incredible knowledge of Broadway and his hilarious "Deconstructed" videos. How did you first meet Seth, and what is your favorite memory of working or spending time with him?
Seth was my first music director in a show after I moved to NYC. We've been friends ever since ! We then got to work together on the concert of Dreamgirls with Lilias White, LaChanze, and Audra McDonald.... a total dream.

Seth Rudetsky’s Broadway Cruise is a unique opportunity for fans to get up close and personal with their favorite stars. What do you think makes this kind of intimate experience so special for both you and the fans?
For me, it's the personal connection that we get to form with the fans, both as an artist and as a person. To show fans an aspect of me as a performer that they might not have been able to see from a TV screen or big Broadway house is incredibly special.

Beyond the performances, what are you looking forward to doing in Iceland? Do you have a favorite port or a specific activity you’re hoping to do?
I definitely want to visit the Blue Lagoon, and I've always wanted to see the Northern Lights!

What's one thing you can tease or share with fans about what you'll be performing or discussing on the cruise?
You'll just have to come on the cruise and see!
