WALK ON THROUGH: CONFESSIONS OF A MUSEUM NOVICE

written & performed by GAVIN CREEL
directed by LINDA GOODRICH

Tony and Olivier Award-winning actor and songwriter GAVIN CREEL (HELLO, DOLLY!, INTO THE WOODS) had never been to The Metropolitan Museum of Art…until now.

Inspired by the countless hours he spent wandering through the world-renowned collections of the museum for a MetLiveArts commission, WALK ON THROUGH is a thrilling new musical event featuring 17 original, infectious, pop-infused songs. In his theatrical songwriting debut, Creel takes us on an intimate, relatable journey of discovery and transformation through the lens of the art that captured his imagination.

Whether you are a museum lover or a fellow novice, this show invites you to take a walk with Creel and engage with art, song, and the creative process in a fresh and new way.

Originally commissioned by The Met, WALK ON THROUGH: CONFESSIONS OF A MUSEUM NOVICE is now making its off-Broadway debut at MCC Theater.

Creel reprises his role as Cinderella’s Prince/Wolf in the critically claimed Broadway revival for exclusive engagements across the U.S. alongside Montego Glover as The Witch, Stephanie J. Block as The Baker’s Wife, Sebastian Arcelus as The Baker and additional cast members from the most recent Broadway revival.
