EspañolLARRY FULLER
'Larry Fuller' is an American choreographer, theatre director, dancer, jazz pianist and actor.
Fuller began his career as a dancer/actor, appearing on Broadway in ''Carousel'', ''The Music Man'', ''Kean'', ''Bravo Giovanni'', and ''Funny Girl''. When Barbra Streisand headed to London for the West End production of the latter, Fuller was tapped to choreograph it, then repeated the task for the American tour. Additional touring productions Fuller has directed and choreographed include ''I Do! I Do!'', ''Kismet'', and ''On a Clear Day You Can See Forever''.
In Europe, Fuller has directed and choreographed productions of ''West Side Story'' in Vienna and Nuremberg, created ''Jazz and the Dancing Americans'' for the Opera House Ballet in Graz, and directed the European premieres of Leonard Bernstein's ''Candide'' and ''On the Town'' and George Gershwin's ''Girl Crazy''. He also directed and choreographed the mid-1980s hit Dave Clark multi-media musical ''Time'' in London.
Television audiences have seen Fuller's choreography on the ''Ed Sullivan Show'', and he has staged and choreographed both the Tony and Emmy Awards telecasts twice.
Fuller's Broadway credits as a choreographer include ''On the Twentieth Century'', ''Merrily We Roll Along'', and ''A Doll's Life''. He has been nominated for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Choreography twice, for his work in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''Evita'', which also garnered him a Tony nod. He choreographed the original West End production of the latter and directed and choreographed the 2004 US national tour as well.
Fuller was involved in a relationship with fellow choreographer/director Michael Bennett for many years [1]. The 1996 documentary ''On Your Toes . . . The Making Of - Choreographer Larry Fuller'' documents the making of the musical production "On Your Toes" with the Stuttgart Ballet Company in 1990. He currently performs with John Pizzarelli and Martin Pizzarelli in their jazz trio, performing on piano.
