Broadway Favorite Bebe Neuwirth Marries in NYC

PEOPLE reports that Bebe Neuwirth, best known to television audiences as the uptight ex-wife of TV's Frasier Crane on Cheers and Frasier and beloved by the Broadway community for her many stays on the New York Stage, has married Chris Calkins, founder of Napa Valley's Destino vineyard.

Neuwirth, 50, and Calkins swapped "I do's" in front of roughly 80 guests at The Players Club in Manhattan's Gramercy Park, with pal Peter Coyote presiding over the Buddhist/Christian ceremony, her rep confirms to PEOPLE. The newlyweds are now on their honeymoon.

Neuwirth made her Broadway debut in the role of Sheila in A Chorus Line in 1980. She has been featured in revivals of Little Me (1982) Sweet Charity (1986), for which she received a Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical, and Damn Yankees (1994). It was with the 1996 revival of Chicago, in which she starred as showgirl and killer Velma Kelly, that she gained her greatest stage recognition. Her performance garnered her Tony and Drama Desk Awards as Best Lead Actress in a Musical. She voiced Binky in the series CyberChase. In 2004 she mounted a show, Here Lies Jenny, that featured songs by Kurt Weill, sung and danced by Neuwirth and a four-person supporting cast, as part of an unspoken ambiguous story in an anonymous seedy bar possibly in Berlin in the 1930s. This show was performed in the Zipper Theater on W. 37 St. in New York, initially only at 11 p.m. on weekends. It was eventually expanded to include an earlier show. Here Lies Jenny was also presented by Ms. Neuwirth in San Francisco in 2005.

On December 31, 2006, her 48th birthday, Neuwirth returned to the still-running Broadway production of Chicago, this time in the role of Roxie Hart.

Neuwirth recently did a reading for the upcoming musical adaption of The Addams Family as Morticia opposite Nathan Lane. The show is currently scheduled to debut next year with a 2010 Broadway opening.
