MARION, OH (CRAWFORD COUNTY NOW) — Broadway stars Libby Servais, known for her role in “Wicked,” and Stephan Stubbins, of “Mary Poppins” fame, are set to perform their two-person show “Broadway In Love” at The Ohio State University at Marion’s Morrill Hall Auditorium on November 9, 2023. The performance is part of the Five Nights on Campus performance series.
“Broadway In Love” is a musical concert that celebrates Broadway’s most touching, hilarious, and captivating love songs. The show features songs from popular Broadway shows including “Wicked,” “South Pacific,” “Frozen,” “My Fair Lady,” and “Phantom of the Opera.”
Both Servais and Stubbins hail from Ohio — Servais from the Toledo area and Stubbins from Cincinnati. They met while performing in a Broadway concert in California’s wine country. Since their marriage in 2019, they have toured their show around the country and the world.
“Growing up and living most of our lives in Ohio, it means so much to bring our voices and stories back to the Buckeye State,” says Servais. “We can’t wait to engage with Broadway lovers of all ages in this community and share an unforgettable night of music, laughter, and fun.”
The couple’s sensational singing is matched by their loving connection as a married couple. Their love shines throughout their show in a genuine and effortless way through show-stopping songs, stories, and anecdotes from their lives and careers.
Servais was most recently seen on Broadway in “Wicked”, floating in the bubble as Glinda. She also performed the role with the National Tour and San Francisco company and was featured on NBC’s “A Very Wicked Halloween” television special. Additionally, on Broadway, Servais was in the original Broadway cast of “Lysistrata Jones”.
Stubbins’ professional performing career has been highlighted by his time on Broadway in “Mary Poppins”, in the pre-Broadway world premiere of the musical “Memphis”, singing an opening act solo for Frank Sinatra, headlining an opening act for Rita Moreno, and working with artist legends on and off stage including Dick Van Dyke, Kristin Chenoweth, Ben Vereen, Conan O’Brien and more. He is also the co-founder of the “Broadway Under the Stars” concert series in Wine-Country, California.
