Couple from Ohio return home on Nov 9th to share songs and stories from NYC and beyond
Broadway actress, Libby Servais (Wicked on Broadway) and husband, Stephan Stubbins (Mary Poppins on Broadway), bring their two-person show “Broadway In Love” to The Ohio State University at Marion’s Morrill Hall Auditorium Thursday, November 9, 2023 as a part of the Five Nights on Campus performance series.
“Broadway In Love” is a musical concert celebration of Broadway’s most touching, hilarious, and captivating love songs. What makes Servais and Stubbins special is that their sensational singing is matched by their loving connection as a married couple… and that love shines throughout their show in a genuine and effortless way through show-stopping songs, stories, and anecdotes from their lives and careers.
Stubbins and Servais both grew up in Ohio, Servais in the Toledo area and Stubbins in the Cincinnati area, and they met performing in a Broadway concert together in California’s wine country. After marrying in 2019, they’ve toured their show “Broadway in Love” around the country (and world) and are excited to bring the show back home to audiences in Ohio.
“Growing up and living most of our lives in Ohio, it means so much to bring our voices and stories back to the Buckeye State,” said Servais. “We can’t wait to engage with Broadway lovers, of all ages in this community, and share an unforgettable night of music, laughter and fun.”
Servais was most recently seen on Broadway in Wicked, floating in the bubble as Glinda. She also performed the role with the National Tour and San Francisco company and was featured on NBC’s “A Very Wicked Halloween” television special. Additionally, on Broadway, Servais was in the original Broadway cast of Lysistrata Jones. Some of her Off-Broadway and regional favorites include The Magnificent Seven (Dominique Moceanu), Chicago (Roxie), and Legally Blonde (Elle Woods) for which she honored as a Broadway World award winner for “Best Actress in a Musical.”
Stubbins’ professional performing career has been highlighted by his time on Broadway in Mary Poppins, in the pre-Broadway world premiere of the musical Memphis, singing an opening act solo for Frank Sinatra, headlining an opening act for Rita Moreno and working with artist legends on and off-stage including Dick Van Dyke, Kristin Chenoweth, Ben Vereen, Conan O’Brien and more. He is also the co-founder of the “Broadway Under the Stars” concert series in wine country, California.
