Currently co-starring as The Wizard of Oz with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo in the critically acclaimed global box office smash, “Wicked”, Jeff Goldblum’s storied career now spans 6 decades of award-winning work as a starring actor in film, television and theater. He has also produced both film and television projects and is an Oscar nominated director for his short feature film, “Little Surprises”.
Goldblum’s many cinema credits include “The Big Chill”, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, and “The Fly”— and box office behemoths “Independence Day”, “Jurassic Park”, and “Thor Ragnorak.
On television, Goldblum most recently starred in the highly regarded Netflix limited series, “KAOS”. In addition, he has been Emmy nominated for his work on “Will and Grace” and for his National Geographic/Disney Plus offering “The World According to Jeff Goldblum” which he also executive produced. On the stage, Goldblum has starred in Broadway productions including “The Pillowman” and “Domesticated”, and the London production of “Speed the Plow”.
Goldblum launched the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra 30 years ago. Since then, he and his band have performed for delighted audiences throughout the United States and all over the world playing contemporary arrangements of classic jazz and American Songbook Standards.
The group has released three albums, all with Decca Records, that have featured brilliant guest artists including Gregory Porter, Kelly Clarkson, Miley Cyrus, Fiona Apple, Freda Payne, Haley Reinhart, Imelda May and more. The fourth album, “Still Blooming,” will be released this spring featuring guest artists Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Scarlett Johannson and Maiya Sykes.
As Goldblum has said, “The recording sessions with these wonderfully talented artists have been tremendously rewarding but I also have a special passion for the live shows that the MSO does and for that chance to connect with audiences."
