Broadway veteran brings arts alive for young audiences at Van Wezel hall
Jay Handelman, Sarasota Herald-Tribune
Justin Gomlak had quite the career going as a Broadway dancer, appearing in eight major musicals, including “The Producers,” “Shrek the Musical,” “Annie Get Your Gun,” “Anything Goes” and “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” along with tours and regional productions.
He performed under his stage name Justin Greer. By the time he retired from Broadway in 2014, he had already launched a side career as an educator, working as a teaching artist in different schools in New York City.
He earned a master’s in educational leadership, politics and advocacy at New York University and now spends his days helping young students and adults better connect with the arts as director of education and community engagement of the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall.
