Jeremy Jordan to Sing National Anthem at World TeamTennis, 7/20

Jeremy Jordan, who will soon be starring on Broadway as Clyde Barrow in BONNIE & CLYDE, will be singing the National Anthem at the World TeamTennis matches on Wednesday, July 20th.

The World TeamTennis is the prelude to the US Open and held at NYC's Randall's Island. Co-founded by Billie Jean King in 1974, World TeamTennis is the groundbreaking co-ed professional tennis league that features the biggest names in the world playing together. The match on July 20th will feature Serena Williams and Martina Hingis.

Jeremy Jordan performed on Broadway in West Side Story (Tony) and Rock of Ages. His regional theatre credits include Big River (Goodspeed) and The Little Dog Laughed (Hartford Theatreworks) for which he received a Critics' Circle Nomination.

BONNIE & CLYDE will play at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 West 45th Street), beginning previews on Friday, November 4th and opening on Thursday, December 1st. BONNIE & CLYDE has direction by Jeff Calhoun, music by Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Don Black, book by Ivan Menchell and music supervision/orchestrations/arrangements by John McDaniel.

Jeremy Jordan will star alongside Laura Osnes (2011 Drama Desk nominee, Anything Goes) as Bonnie Parker.

"What attracted me to this Bonnie & Clyde is that the authors have developed a love story that is both compelling and sexy, distinct from the film and yet faithful to these personalities who remain such a part of the American landscape" said director Jeff Calhoun. "I can't wait for audiences to see Laura Osnes and Jeremy Jordan in these iconic roles. They are both extraordinary talents."

Laura Osnes originated the role of Bonnie Parker when BONNIE & CLYDE first began at the La Jolla Playhouse in the fall of 2009, where she earned a San Diego Theater Critics Circle Award for her performance and the show won Best Musical. She then reprised that role opposite Jeremy Jordan in the fall of 2010 when the show ran to critical acclaim at the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota, Florida.

BONNIE & CLYDE will be presented by Kathleen Raitt, Barry Satchwell Smith, Jerry Frankel, Jeffrey Richards and Michael Jenkins.
