Alex Brightman stars as Josh Skinner in [*Schmigadoon!*](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/show/45429-schmigadoon-on-broadway) on Broadway at the [Nederlander Theatre](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/venues/nederlander-theatre) from April 4 to September 6, 2026.

Alexander Michael&nbsp;Brightman was born on&nbsp;February 5, 1987&nbsp;in Santa Clara, California, and is a Tony-nominated actor, known for originating the role&nbsp;of Dewey Finn in&nbsp;[School of Rock -&nbsp;The Musical](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/show/school-of-rock-the-musical)&nbsp;and the titular role in the musical adaptation of&nbsp;[Beetlejuice](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/show/beetlejuice).

He attended the all-male Jesuit high school Bellarmine College Preparatory in&nbsp;San Jose, California,&nbsp;where he&nbsp;graduated in 2005. His career on the Broadway stage initially got off to a false start, as he was cast as an understudy in the ill-fated 2008 production of&nbsp;Glory Days, which only played a total of 17 previews and closed after its first regular performance at the <a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/circle-in-the-square-theatre">Circle in the Square Theatre</a>. He would finally grace the stage and make his Broadway debut, however, after being cast as Boq in the smash hit musical [Wicked](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/show/wicked), assuming the role from November 2008 through to November 2010. His next Broadway venture was&nbsp;the&nbsp;musical adaptation of the Tim Burton&nbsp;movie&nbsp;<a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/reviews/big-fish">Big Fish</a>, taking on the role of&nbsp;Zacky Price (and understudying the role of Will Bloom) at the <a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/neil-simon-theatre">Neil Simon Theatre</a> from the beginning of September to the end of December 2013. He was then cast as&nbsp;Michael Wormwood in the hit British import&nbsp;<a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/reviews/matilda-the-musical">Matilda The Musical</a>, joining the Broadway cast at the <a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/shubert-theatre">Shubert Theatre</a> from&nbsp;June&nbsp;2014 to&nbsp;February 2015.

Brightman's big break came after being cast in the starring role of Dewey Finn (made famous by Jack Black in the 2003 movie) in Andrew Lloyd Webber's&nbsp;School of Rock - The Musical&nbsp;at Broadway's <a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/winter-garden-theatre">Winter Garden Theatre</a> in 2015. He garnered great acclaim for his dynamic leading man performance,&nbsp;staying in the role from November 2015 to November 2016&nbsp;and earning&nbsp;his first Tony Award nomination in 2016 in the category of Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical.&nbsp;He would also reprise the role for a special return engagement in April 2017.

Away from Broadway, Brightman guest starred in&nbsp;Nassim Soleimanpour's&nbsp;White Rabbit Red Rabbit&nbsp;in 2016 at the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/westside-theatre">Westside Theatre</a>&nbsp;off Broadway and&nbsp;starred as&nbsp;Giuseppe Zangara in the 2017 Encores! production of&nbsp;Assassins at New York City Center, His various screen credits include guest roles in series such as The Good Fight&nbsp;on CBS, SMILF&nbsp;on Showtime, and Royal Pains&nbsp;on the USA Network. He made his feature film debut as Roy in the 2009 comedic horror Red Hook.

Following the pre-Broadway world premiere engagement at Washington, D.C.'s National Theatre in the fall of 2018, Brightman returned&nbsp;to the Broadway stage in another Tim Burton musical adaptation,&nbsp;starring&nbsp;in&nbsp;Beetlejuice&nbsp;at the Winter Garden Theatre from March 28, 2019. The production had posted a closure notice for June 6, 2020, but was then forced to close prematurely on March 11, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The production, however, announced a reopening&nbsp;in spring 2022.
