DISNEY PRINCESS – THE CONCERT Adds ANASTASIA Star Christy Altomare and THE LION KING Star Syndee Winters

Christy Altomare, star of the musical Anastasia, and The Lion King star Syndee Winters will be joining the Broadway Princess Party on the road in 2022 for "Disney Princess: The Concert".

Altomare made the announcement on Twitter this afternoon that she will join the company of Disney royalty for tour dates from January- April 2022. Winters will also join the production for its 2022 engagements.

Christy Altomare originated the role of Anya (better known as the Grand Duchess Anastasia) in the Broadway production of Anastasia for which she received the Theatre World Award and was nominated for an Outer Critics Award and a Drama Desk Award for lead actress in a musical. She made her Broadway debut playing the role of Sophie Sheridan in Mamma Mia!. Off- Broadway, Christy portrayed the role of Sue Snell in MCC's revival of Carrie the Musical. Christy can be heard in the cast recordings of both Anastasia and Carrie.

Syndee Winters made her Broadway debut as future-queen 'Nala' in Disney's The Lion King - a role she reprised in 2019, when she had the honorable opportunity to meet Sister 'Nala,' Beyonce, in preparation of The Lion King live-action film. Syndee's other Broadway credits include Motown the Musical, Pippin, and "working it" as all three Schuyler Sisters in the smash hit Hamilton.

The 85-city U.S. tour stars Tony-nominee Susan Egan ('Belle' from Broadway's Beauty and the Beast, 'Meg' from the animated feature film Hercules), two-time Tony-nominee Laura Osnes ('Cinderella' in Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella), Grammy-nominee Courtney Reed ('Jasmine' in Broadway's Aladdin), and rising star Aisha Jackson ('Anna' in Broadway's Frozen) during the first leg of the tour through December 2021.

Beginning February 2022 and through the tour's conclusion on April 16 at the American Music Theatre in Lancaster, PA, the line-up will feature Drama Desk-nominee Christy Altomare ('Anastasia' in Broadway's Anastasia, Mamma Mia!), Susan Egan, Courtney Reed and BroadwayWorld Award-winner Syndee Winters ('Nala' in Broadway's The Lion King, Hamilton).

Music Director Benjamin Rauhala (Fiddler on the Roof, The Secret Life of Bees) and enchanting Prince Adam J. Levy (Waitress) will also join the featured quartets throughout the tour.

Fans are encouraged to dress up in their best royal attire for an unforgettable evening. Dreams will come true as these acclaimed performers sing over 30 favorite Disney Princess songs, and share their exclusive, hilarious and heartfelt behind-the-scenes stories from their time on the stage and screen. Larger than life animations and visuals accompanying the music will immerse the audience in pure Disney magic.

Disney Princess - The Concert is based on the established touring production Broadway Princess Party, which began as a cabaret show at Feinstein's/54 Below in NYC in 2015. It garnered critical success and a loyal fan base, including over 20 million views on YouTube. This new venture is co-produced by Disney Concerts with Broadway Princess Party, LLC, as led by partners Susan Egan, Laura Osnes, Benjamin Rauhala, and Courtney Reed.

The show's creative team now also includes creative director Amy Tinkham (Coco at the Hollywood Bowl, Aerosmith's Las Vegas Residency), and veteran choreographer Sunny Walters (New Kids on the Block, Ghost: The Musical on Broadway).

Fans can listen to their favorite Disney Princess songs now on a curated playlist from Walt Disney Records. For more information and additional cities to be announced, visit DisneyPrincessConcert.com.
