Cheyenne Jackson is an award winning stage and film actor currently starring as Woody in the new Broadway revival of Finian's Rainbow at the ST. James Theatre.

Fans of Cheyenne Jackson, or 'Cheyenne­tologists' as they prefer to call themselves, can consider themselves very fortunate these days - the singer and actor can be seen and heard in various projects, including his regular guest stint on '30 Rock' ; his lead role on the Broadway stage in 'Finian's Rainbow'; and on his latest CD, The Power of Two,' where his musical stylings can be heard alongside Michael Feinstein's.

COSTA MESA, CA-It's no secret that the 1980 Olivia Newton-John/Gene Kelly film Xanadu was such a horrendously-received crap-o-rama that it has since transcended above it's own flaws to become a surprise cult classic that people actually adore, in its own very unique way. With that in mind, the Broadway musical-that uses that vapid movie as its source material-puts that very awfulness center-stage... parodies the heck out of it, points out its cheesiness blatantly, and even surprisingly-and lovingly-pays tribute to it in a very respectful way... Well, at least, respectful in the way the best satires can. XANADU, Broadway's multiple Tony® Award-nominated musical that launched its first national tour at the Orange County Performing Arts Center, is one funny, self-aware, hilarious musical comedy that takes absolute pleasure in its own campy delights. The uproariously bright show skates at the Center (the musical's only Southern California tour stop) until December 27.
