How Miki Abraham and Alex Joseph Grayson Planned Their Wedding While Opening Broadway Shows

Playbill: Talk about showmance—couple Alex Joseph Grayson and Miki Abraham are getting married. The catch is, they’re each immersed in the chaos of opening a Broadway show. Grayson plays Jim Conley in the Broadway revival of Parade, which opened March 16. And Abraham is making her Broadway debut in Shucked as a swing and a cover for the character of Lulu, which opened April 4. They have set a wedding date for April 8, just days after their respective curtain calls. In short, it’s a lot.

One thing I hear so frequently about being in the theater industry is that there’s really no time to have a family or take care of kids or simply just have a life outside of theater. So seeing this article made me really happy because it shows that you can in fact have those things and have a career in the theater industry. Even though I am not technically in the large theater industry yet I feel like it’s just a big misconception that we have to put all of our private lives to the side in order to really reach success and fulfillment within the industry. I love how the theater brought this couple together, and I am happy that they shared this news so many of us can see that it is possible to, in fact, get married, while being in the industry, even during your most hectic times. I really wish this couple all the best in their marriage and their careers!
