August 4: Andrew Barth Feldman
Feldman burst onto the Broadway scene in 2019 as the youngest actor ever to play Evan in “Dear Evan Hansen” following his win at the Jimmy Awards in 2018. His electric portrayal of the iconic character wowed audiences and critics alike. He has gone on to be a series regular in Disney’s “High School Musical: The Series” and to helm the legendary “Ratatouille: The TikTok Musical.” “Park Map” is his brilliant original show, which uproariously traces the wild history of all things Disney, while delving into his ever-deepening obsession with visiting the most magical place on Earth.
August 11: Teal Wicks
Teal Wicks is a California girl at heart, and a true Broadway leading lady. On Broadway, Wicks originated the roles of Lady in “The Cher Show,” Mary Barrie in “Finding Neverland” and Emma Carew in the revival of “Jekyll & Hyde.” She made her Broadway debut as Elphaba in “Wicked” after playing the role to critical acclaim in the Los Angeles and San Francisco companies. Heartfelt and always elegant, Wicks will sing songs that span the sophisticated arc of her career and beyond.
August 18: Kathryn Allison
