\n\tSeller is a well-known American theatrical producer who knows the industry inside and out. The producer\u2019s resume speaks for itself, with three Best Musical Tony Award-winning<\/a> Broadway shows under his belt for his work on productions like Rent, Avenue Q<\/em> and In the Heights.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\tReleased May 6, the new memoir is a coming-of-age tale that follows a young Seller before the accolades and star-studded career, at a time when he was juggling life living in a poor neighborhood just outside of Detroit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe book touches on Seller\u2019s sexuality, adoption and his longing to create in a world that didn\u2019t foster creativity, and how he found his place \u2014 and belonging \u2014 in the Broadway community. From his youth, we are transported to Seller\u2019s life spent as an office assistant, to meeting stars like Jonathan Larson and Lin-Manuel Miranda. The memoir also touches on finding new audiences, to creating amidst the HIV AIDS crisis. Seller also takes the audience along for a look into his whirlwind Tony Awards journey.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tUltimately, the novel offers readers a look behind the glitz and glam, offering Seller\u2019s perspective on the creation of musicals, all while juggling his own reality and struggles. This read is for those curious, Broadway-loving folk who long for an insider\u2019s perspective on the inner workings of Broadway\u2019s most beloved musicals.<\/p>\n

\n\tThough he\u2019s best-known for his work on Rent<\/em>, Seller also produced Hamilton<\/em> in 2015<\/a> alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda, which he\u2019d worked with previously on In the Heights.<\/em> Seller also revolutionized theater accessibility with the creation of the $20 ticket lottery system he created for Rent,<\/em> making theater available to anyone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
