Due to overwhelming demand, our first performance with Tituss Burgess is almost sold out so quickly that we’ve added a second show on Friday, October 24!
� Headliner: We are honored to welcome Tituss Burgess — a Tony-nominated Broadway powerhouse who has dazzled audiences on stage and screen, from The Little Mermaid and Guys and Dolls to his iconic, Emmy-nominated role on Netflix’s Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. His humor, heart, and artistry have made him one of the most celebrated performers of our time.
� On the Piano: Joining Tituss is the incomparable John McDaniel — Tony Award–winning music director, pianist, composer, and producer. Known for his Broadway brilliance and as the longtime band leader for The Rosie O’Donnell Show, John brings warmth and musical mastery to every performance.
� Why Tituss? Because he embodies who we are. Gray Box Theater was built to showcase bold, diverse, and authentic voices. Tituss — a proud, out, gay Black man living his truth and uplifting others through his art — perfectly reflects the spirit of inclusion, resilience, and joy we want our stage to represent.
