Claybourne Elder

Currently playing John Adams on HBO’s smash-hit period piece “The Gilded Age,” Claybourne recently starred on Broadway as Andy in the 2021 Tony Award-winning revival of Company with Patti Lupone.  Elder is a SAG Award, Grammy, Drama Desk and Lucille Lortel nominee who’s brought laughter and heart to audiences nationwide with roles in Sunday in the Park with George, Bonnie and Clyde, and Torch Song.  His TV and film credits include “The Carrie Diaries,” “FBI,” and “Bad Cupid.” Elder has also made appearances on “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” “This American Life” and “CBS This Morning.”

Using his favorite music from the Great American Songbook, Sondheim, Whitney Houston, and beyond, “If The Stars Were Mine” explores sex, fatherhood, religion and love. For this performance, Elder is joined by Rodney Bush, a composer, songwriter, and music director who has worked on over 50 productions nationally and internationally of musicals and operas.

Come see why critics call him “handsome and intense” (Observer), “tough and tender” (New York Daily News) and “stupid funny as he is drop-dead buff!” (The Wrap)
