BOOK OF MORMON Star AJ Holmes Brings Hour Of Stand Up To Edinburgh Fringe
by BWW News Desk - June 30, 2019
Polymathic twenty-nine year old of (way too...) MANY talents, AJ Holmes is an award-winning actor, musician, composer, improviser, musical theatre performer, music director, coach, stand up, songwriter, and storyteller. The guy plays piano, he plays guitar, and he might even be drumming a bit. Best known for bossing it about the world as the lead in Arnold Cunningham's The Book of Mormon to great acclaim for five and a half years, he also worked in the writers room for a season of South Park and wrote music and lyrics for four Starkid Productions musicals (which has over half a mil subscribers on YouTube), not to mention countless other theatre and music credits. He is also (remarkably) likeable.
