ABOUT Norm Lewis

Actor and singer Norm Lewis, a native of Eatonville, Florida, made his Broadway debut in 1993 as a member of the ensemble in the hit musical production of The Who's Tommy.  Since then, he has appeared both on and off Broadway in a surprising range of musicals. Lewis played the role of Jake in Bill Russell and Henry Krieger's 1997 musical, Side Show, and was a replacement in a number of shows – John in the long-running Miss Saigon in 1996 and Billy Flynn in the ongoing revival of Chicago early in 2004. In 2002 Lewis performed in the short-lived Amour, Jeremy Sams's adaptation of the French musical by Michel LeGrand and Didier van Cauwelaert. 

Lewis began his association with The Joseph Papp Public Theater and the New York Shakespeare Festival in 2000, appearing as Eddie Mackrel in Michael John LaChiusa's musical adaptation of the poem, The Wild Party, by Joseph Moncure March. Five years later, he starred as Valentine in the 2005 Shakespeare in the Park revival production of the musical adaptation of Shakespeare's Two Gentlemen of Verona by John Guare and Mel Shapiro with music by Galt MacDermot.
