Debbie Gravitte

One of Broadway’s biggest personalities, Debbie Gravitte has found herself in demand from the Broadway stage to the concert stage and beyond.  She won the prestigious Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical for her performance in Jerome Robbins’ Broadway, along with a Drama Desk Award Nomination and New York Showstopper Award. After making her Broadway debut in the original cast of They’re Playing Our Song, she went on to appear in: Perfectly Frank (Drama Desk Nomination), Blues in the Night, Ain’t Broadway Grand, Zorba, Chicago, and Les Miserables.

Debbie has appeared in the Encore’s series productions of The Boys from Syracuse, Tenderloin, and Carnival at New York’s City Center.  She has performed her nightclub act worldwide, and had the honor of opening in Atlantic City for George Burns and Jay Leno.

A favorite with symphony audiences, Debbie has sung with over 100 orchestras around the world. She has toured with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops, appeared with Lang Lang and the Chinese Philharmonic in Beijing, Peter Nero and the Philly Pops, the National Symphony with Marvin Hamlisch, The New York Pops with Skitch Henderson, and numerous major orchestras in the United States.  Internationally, she has sung with the London Symphony Orchestra, the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, and major orchestras in Sweden, Germany, Italy, Israel, and Brazil.

On television, Debbie co-starred on the CBS series Trial and Error, appeared on NBC’S Pursuit of Happiness, and has starred in several specials for PBS, including Live from the Kennedy Center, The Boston Pops Celebrate Bernstein, Rodgers and Hart for Great Performances, and Ira Gershwin’s 100th Birthday Celebration at Carnegie Hall.

Debbie has 3 solo CD’s to her credit: Defying Gravity, The MGM Album, and Part of Your World: The Music of Alan Menken. Her other recordings include: Calamity Jane, Unsung Sondheim, Lucky Stiff, Miss Spectacular, Louisiana Purchase, and A Broadway Christmas. She is currently working on her latest project: Big Band Broadway.

Debbie has sung with the New York City Ballet in Peter Martin’s Thou Swell at Lincoln Center, appeared with Bette Midler in the Universal Feature, Isn’t She Great?, and can be heard as one of the voices in Disney’s The Little Mermaid.
