An American actor, singer, and writer who is best known for his work on television and on Broadway.
Claybourne Elder: I WANT TO BE BAD, is a one-man concert and comedy show that entertains, draws you in, and ultimately pulls at the heartstrings. His burnished vocals, gentle manner, and sharp humor, combine to create a distinctive experience that will feel close to home for Broadway fans living in the Saratoga and Capitol District rather than Manhattan. Claybourne's show has been reviewed as artistically fulfilling, emotionally uplifting and often very funny.
Elder currently plays John Adams on HBO’s hit series, THE GILDED AGE and was most recently seen on Broadway in the Tony Award-Winning revival of COMPANY starring Patti LuPone. He is a Grammy, Screen Actors Guild Award, Drama Desk and Lucille Lortel nominee and is known for his performances on Broadway in BONNIE AND CLYDE, SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE, TORCH SONG, and SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM at the Hollywood Bowl.
