Andrew Lippa

A Broadway composer and lyricist whose musical The Wild Party (2000) won a Drama Desk Award and an Outer Critics Circle Award, and whose score for The Addams Family (2010) earned him a Tony nomination. He also composed the oratorio I Am Harvey Milk and wrote A Little Princess and Big Fish, alongside a long-running role as music director for Kristin Chenoweth. As a resident artist at Ars Nova, he has kept working across musical theatre's commercial and experimental edges alike.
