Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Darren Criss headlines the 20th annual ARTS by George! in a special concert featuring songs from throughout his wildly eclectic career as both songwriter and performer, including those from Fox’s hit TV show Glee, StarKid Productions, and the Broadway shows in which he’s starred. Criss is currently earning rave reviews for his leading role in the critically acclaimed Broadway hit Maybe Happy Ending directed by Michael Arden. Other Broadway credits include the titular role of Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2015), How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (2012), and the 2022 revival of David Mamet’s seminal play American Buffalo alongside Laurence Fishburne and Sam Rockwell. In 2018 his work in Ryan Murphy’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story earned him a Primetime Emmy, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild, and Critics Choice Award. He was most recently seen starring in Netflix’s hit series Hollywood, for which he also served as executive producer. Don’t miss the chance to experience the “charming, spirited and wonderfully funny” (Entertainment Weekly) Darren Criss live!
