  • Summary

  • André Ward never played house when he was little, but he always played “New York City Apartment”, and with impressive Broadway credits, he can fully say he’s finally living in the midst of his dream. Growing up a “talkative” child, his teacher recommended he might need to find a way to work out some of his excess energy, and so they sent him to a children's theater company and hasn’t stopped performing since. He also delves into the challenges of transitioning between theater and film, highlighting the differences in performance styles required for each. Currently playing as Toulouse-Lautrec in "Moulin Rouge! The Musical," Andre takes glee in the opportunity to showcase both his comedic and emotional range. He opens up about his fears and aspirations regarding directing and writing, his dream of playing a sci-fi character, and why he continues to strive for balance between work and his personal life. André Ward is a seasoned Broadway actor with an impressive Broadway resume dating back over 24 years or so, beginning with “Saturday Night Fever”, “Xanadu”, “Rock of Ages”, “Something Rotten”, and “Escape to Margaritaville”. He has five national tours under his belt, including performing as the leading player in “Pippin”, as well as numerous regional credits. His TV and film credits include “Masters of None”, “Broad City”, “Elementary,” and “High Maintenance”. He can be seen now as Toulouse-Lautrec in “Moulin Rouge! The Musical” on Broadway, which just celebrated its 5th Anniversary.
