Stephanie J. Block has established herself as one of the most relevant and versatile voices in contemporary musical theater. Stephanie was last seen in London starring as Kate in Kiss Me, Kate, which recently aired in cinemas and on PBS. In the 2022-2023 Broadway season, Stephanie starred in the wildly popular and acclaimed revival of Into the Woods as The Baker’s Wife. She continued on with that role in the US National Tour. 2023 also brought her reimagining the role of Norma Desmond for the Kennedy Center’s production of Sunset Boulevard, for which she won the 2024 Helen Hayes Award for Outstanding Lead Performer in a Musical. These two back-to-back powerhouse performances had critics touting her as “the current reigning queen of American musical theater.”

Ms. Block won the 2019 TONY Award® for Best Leading Actress in a Musical, as well as winning The Drama Desk Award and Outer Critics Award for her STAR turn in The Cher Show. Stephanie was also recognized for her role of Trina in Lincoln Center Theatre's 2016 revival of Falsettos, garnering her the TONY Award®, Drama Desk and Outer Critics nominations for Best Featured Actress in a Musical. In 2013, she was recognized with both the Drama Desk and TONY Award® nomination(s) for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her portrayal of Alice Nutting/Edwin Drood in The Roundabout Theater’s production of The Mystery of Edwin Drood. These three productions marked three TONY nominations in a six year span, a feat very few Broadway actors have attained. Other Broadway credits include Reno Sweeney in the 2011 Tony Award®–winning revival of Anything Goes, 9 to 5: The Musical as Judy Bernly (Drama Desk nomination). She created the roles of Grace O'Malley in The Pirate Queen and Liza Minnelli in The Boy From Oz (opposite Hugh Jackman). Block is well known for her portrayal as Elphaba in the Broadway company of Wicked, as well as originating the role in the First North American Tour (Helen Hayes Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in Musical).
