Join performer and educator, Seth Stewart, as he shares valuable and relatable lessons he’s learned in his journey to a successful career as an actor, dancer, choreographer, and leading performing arts educator. Audience questions will be welcomed during a Q&A session following Stewart’s talk.
Stewart was an original cast member of Hamilton and performed in other Broadway shows including Sweet Charity and In the Heights. He has toured the world with popular artists such as Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey, and more; appeared in movies like Sex and the City: The Movie and Music and Lyrics; as well as choreographed for the television show Bull, the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, among others.
In 2025, Stewart published his first book, Follow Your Vision, Live Your Truth, a memoir chronicling his journey from Broadway to a decade-long transformational spiritual journey that led him back to nature and his heart. Today, he serves as a performance coach and guest speaker through his company, Performer’s Edge, which provides coaching, courses, and workshops for pre-professional and professional artists – giving them the tools to succeed in the entertainment industry. Stewart is also the founder of True Kings Academy, a mentorship program supporting men with leadership skills through spiritual embodiment, mental health wellness, and wealth mindset.
