Claybourne Elder

Enjoy a hilarious and heartfelt evening that’s part cabaret and part stand-up with Broadway’s hunky gay ex-Mormon dad Claybourne Elder in “If The Stars Were Mine.”

Currently playing John Adams on HBO’s smash-hit “The Gilded Age,” Claybourne recently starred on Broadway as Andy in the Tony Award-winning revival of Company with Patti Lupone. Elder is a SAG Award, Grammy, Drama Desk and Lucille Lortel nominee who’s brought laughter and heart to audiences nationwide with roles in Sunday in the Park with George, Bonnie and Clyde, and Torch Song. His TV and film credits include “The Carrie Diaries,” “FBI,” and “Bad Cupid.” Elder has also made appearances on “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” “This American Life” and “CBS This Morning.”

Using his favorite music from the Great American Songbook, Sondheim, Whitney Houston, and beyond, “If The Stars Were Mine” explores sex, fatherhood, religion and love.
Come see why critics call him “handsome and intense” (Observer), “tough and tender” (New York Daily News) and “stupid funny as he is drop-dead buff!” (The Wrap)
