Biography:
Anthony Murphy is a singer, actor, director and choreographer who has graced international stages beginning at age of 18 when he performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Anthony studied Directing & Choreography at Otterbein University. While there he trained vocally under world renown Opera Tenor Brian Cheney.
He later went on to perform regionally around the U.S. and Off-Broadway. In 2017 he originated the role of the Genie in the Broadway U.S. National Tour of Disney’s Aladdin the Musical. Later he moved to the Australian company of Aladdin. While in Australia he premiered his sold-out solo cabaret Introducing: Anthony Murphy at the Doo Bop Jazz Bar in Brisbane, AUS.

Accolades:
“With more personality than a Peter Pan bus transporting drag queens to a gig, more personal fashion style than a F.I.T. freshman, and more voice than an entire church choir, Anthony Murphy did himself and his family (Dad, in the house, Mom watching via live stream) more than proud.”
– Stephen Mosher, BroadwayWorld.com
“As the all-important Genie, Murphy, a sort of African-American doppelganger of the great Zero Mostel, is a most buoyant dancer, and brings a jazzy Cab Calloway style blended with hipster/drama queen twist to the proceedings.”
- Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun*Times
