Tony Winner Steve Kazee to Lead Industry Reading of New Musical Based On Hit Movie THE STING

Thrilled to announce that I'm playing the role of Henry Gondorff in the industry readings of a new musical of the hit film The Sting tomorrow and Friday! Based on the 1973 Academy Award–winning film, The Sting tells the tale of a pair of con men, small-town grifter Johnny Hooker and big-time hustler Henry Gondorff, who plot to bring down the city's most corrupt racketeer. The Tony Award–winning creative team includes director John Rando (On the Town), choreographer Warren Carlyle (Hello, Dolly!), bookwriter Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone), and an original score by composer/lyricist team Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis (Urinetown).
