Happy 44th birthday to talented Randy Harrison!

Queer as Folk alum Randy Harrison turns 44 today.

Randy has had a thriving career on the stage since the beloved Showtime series about queer life in Pittsburgh how left the air 14 years ago after five seasons. He will be one of the stars of Christmas on the Rocks at Theatre Works Hartford from December 2-23.

Randy had previously starred in a production of Angels in America at Berkeley Rep in 2018 and a year earlier starred as George in the Guthrie Theatre production of Sunday in the Park With George. A few years ago, he led the national tour of the musical Cabaret as the Emcee – the role that won Joel Grey an Oscar, Alan Cumming a Tony and has also been played by Neil Patrick Harris, among others. He reprised the role last year for a run at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine.

He has appeared in productions on Broadway and off-Broadway, at the Public Theater and in productions at such regional theaters as Yale Repertory Theater, The Guthrie Theater, and Shakespeare Theatre DC.
