AN AMERICAN IN PARIS's Natasha Katz took home the 2015 Tony Award for Best Lighting Design yesterday evening. BroadwayWorld caught up with Katz in the winners' room right after her speech - hear what she had to say below!

Natasha Katz also designed the lighting for Skylight on Broadway after lighting the production on the West End last year. Her recent Broadway credits include The Glass Menagerie (Tony Award); Aladdin; Once (Tony Award); Motown; Follies; Aida (Tony Award); Sweet Smell of Success; Twelfth Night; Beauty and the Beast; and Salvage from the Coast of Utopia trilogy (Tony Award). She recently designed The Iceman Cometh at BAM. Her varied career has led her to design lighting for an array of productions, including Off-Broadway; regional theaters; dance and opera companies; concerts; international theatres; and television.

The new Broadway musical An American in Paris opened on Broadway on Sunday, April 12, 2015 at the Palace Theatre (Broadway at 47th Street). An American In Paris is directed and choreographed by fellow Tony-winner Christopher Wheeldon. Inspired by the Academy-Award winning film, An American in Paris brings this classic tale to Broadway for the first time with music and lyrics by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin and a book by Tony nominee and Pulitzer Prize finalist Craig Lucas. An American In Paris is the romantic story of a young American soldier, a beautiful French girl and an indomitable European city, each yearning for a new beginning in the aftermath of war.
