Playbill highlights talent of nearly a dozen Elon alumni now on Broadway

​Theater industry publication Playbill recently honored the achievements of Elon alumni now working on Broadway and ranked the school’s Music Theatre program as one of the best-represented on some of New York’s City’s most high-profile stages. 

The recognition comes through the PlaybillEDU program, which promotes the schools attended by current Broadway cast members. A recent article highlighted the alma maters of the cast of Irving Berlin’s “Holiday Inn,” including Elon Music Theatre’s Matt Meigs ’12 and Drew Redington ’18. 

Elon also recently was ranked on Playbill’s “Big 10: Top 10 Colleges Currently Represented on Broadway.” Elon’s “honorable mention” ranking stems from the 11 alumni now performing this Broadway season: Rob Marnell ‘06 (“Beautiful”), Nasia Thomas ’15 (“Beautiful”), Gerald Caesar ’16 (“A Bronx Tale”), Tanner Ray Wilson (“Cats”), Ashley Pérez Flanagan ’10 (“The Great Comet”), Daniel J. Watts ’04 (“Hamilton”), Taylor Trensch (“Hello, Dolly!”), Matt Meigs ‘12 (“Holiday Inn”), Drew Redington ‘18 (“Holiday Inn”), Ginna Claire Mason ‘13 (“Wicked”) and Lindsay K. Northen ’03 (“Wicked”).
