David Burnham

David recently starred in the hit musical "Wicked" on Broadway, playing "Fiyero"- a role which he created in the original workshops of the show. He is a member of the original Broadway cast of the six-time Tony Award winning musical "The Light in the Piazza," performing on both the "Tony Awards" on CBS and the PBS telecast "Live From Lincoln Center." David is the 2007 recipient of the prestigious Helen Hayes Award for best actor as well as the 2007 best actor "Garland Award" for his portrayal of Fabrizio Nacarelli in the national tour of "The Light in the Piazza." In New York City he lent his talent to the Actor's Fund Benefit production of "On The 20th Century" at The New Amsterdam Theater, and performed his solo concert at the famed New York jazz club "Birdland" and "The Metropolitan Room".

David first gained critical acclaim when, after a two year search, he was chosen to replace Donny Osmond in the national tour of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" (Drama-Logue Award) - a role which he has subsequently played in four more productions all over the country.

At Boston's North Shore Music Theater he created the role of Tom in the new musical "Tom Jones," as well as the role of Billy opposite Maureen McGovern in the new musical "Letters From 'Nam" - a role which he reprised at The Kennedy Center and Seattle's Village Theater. In Chicago, he originated the role of Charlie in the world premiere of "Peggy Sue Got Married," after touring the country in the national tour of "Jesus Christ Superstar" opposite Ted Neeley.

Other theater productions include the L.A. premiere of The Road Theater's production of "The Woman In Black," (The Actor) directed by Ken Sawyer, "Assasins" (John Hinckley) at Reprise - with members of the original Broadway cast, "Children of Eden" (Caine - Robby Award) at Musical Theater West, "Godspell" (Jesus) at The St. Louis MUNY, and "Pirates of Penzance" (Fredrick) at The Sacramento Music Circus.

On film, David was the voice of the Prince in the Warner Bros. animated feature "The King & I," and can be heard as "Willy" in the Disney cartoon "Home On The Range." Recordings include the soundtracks to the ABC telecast of Stephen Schwartz's "Gheppetto," "The King & I," and "Home On The Range," as well as the recordings "Lerner, Loewe, & Lane," "Strouse, Schwartz, & Schwartz," and "Lee Lessack - "In Good Company."
