NEW YORK, April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ The One Club for Creativity (www.oneclub.org), the non-profit organization that produces The One Show and ADC Annual Awards, today announced the schedule for Creative Week (www.oneshow.org), a weeklong festival (May 8-12) showcasing the best creative minds in advertising and design. TOCC also revealed that Daveed Diggs (Hamilton) and Jessica Williams (The Daily Show) will host The One Show on Wednesday and Friday, respectively. Creative Week partners include Pandora, Pinterest and Shutterstock.

2016 Tony and Grammy Award-winner Daveed Diggs became the talk of New York for his performance as both 'Thomas Jefferson' and 'Lafayette' in the lauded musical Hamilton. In the few months since his departure from the show, Daveed has shot Lionsgate's upcoming feature Wonder, joined Andy Samberg in the HBO mockumentary Tour de Pharmacy, and began a six-episode arc on ABC's hit series Black-ish. Daveed can also be seen in Baz Luhrmann's musical-drama series The Get Down, as well as an upcoming arc on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. He is currently producing a television series for ABC.

While studying Film and English at Cal State Long Beach and performing with UCB, Jessica landed the role of correspondent for Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Jessica and fellow comedian Phoebe Robinson perform as 2 Dope Queens and host a monthly stand-up and storytelling show in New York and various cities. She is currently starring in The Incredible Jessica James for Beachside Films opposite Chris O'Dowd, which just premiered at Sundance 2017.
