Susan Egan has traversed all four corners of the entertainment industry, making powerful impressions in theatre, film, television and music. On Broadway, Susan starred in the title role of "Thoroughly Modern Millie;" won critical acclaim as Broadway's longest-running "Sally Bowles" in "Cabaret;" originated the leading roles in "Triumph of Love" and "State Fair;" and most notably, received both Tony Award and Drama Desk nominations for "Best Actress" as the original 'Belle' in Disney's "Beauty and the Beast." Regionally, Egan starred alongside Carol Burnett in Sondheim's "Putting It Together," Tommy Tune in the national tour of "Bye, Bye Birdie," and created works at Yale Repertory, Baltimore Center Stage, South Coast Repertory, and the Mark Taper Forum. Susan's film credits include "13 Going on 30," "Gotta Kick It Up" for the Disney Channel, and countless independent features seen at the Seattle Film Festival, Sarasota Film Festival, Slamdance, the HBO Comedy Festival and beyond. In animation, Egan gave voice to sultry 'Meg' in Disney's "Hercules," sang as "Angel" in "Lady and the Tramp II," and translated two Japanese blockbusters into English for director Hayao Miyazaki: "Gina" in "Porco Rosso," and "Lin" in "Spirited Away," which won an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. She has also spent the last 6 years recording the voice of 'Belle' for all those Disney Princess CDs and toys!
