Brandon Uranowitz
Brandon Jacob Uranowitz (born July 9, 1986) is an American actor. He won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play for Leopoldstadt (2022–23) and has also received Tony Award nominations for An American in Paris (2014–15), Falsettos (2016), Burn This (2019), and Ragtime (2025–26). His other Broadway credits include Baby, It's You! (2011), Prince of Broadway (2017), The Band's Visit (2018), and Assassins (2022).
Uranowitz grew up in West Orange, New Jersey and attended the nearby Montclair Kimberley Academy. He is from a Jewish family and had a bar mitzvah.
He began performing at age six and studied at Performers Theatre Workshop. In the mid-1990s, he was a working child actor; professional roles included an ensemble member in Evita at the Paper Mill Playhouse (1996) and a swing in A Christmas Carol at Madison Square Garden. In 1997, he assumed the role of Little Boy in the world premiere of Ragtime in Toronto. He was also member of The Broadway Kids, a musical revue and recording project; he performed live off-Broadway and appears on the 1998 album The Broadway Kids Back on Broadway. Of Uranowitz's contribution as part of the ensemble cast, The New York Times wrote he "was a testament to youthful enthusiasm and lung power".
He attended New York University and graduated in 2008 with a degree in theater arts from their Tisch School of the Arts.
Uranowitz resumed his acting career while training at NYU; early on, he held the roles of Richard in Richard III and the King of France in All's Well That Ends Well at Classical Studio, Cardinal Bellarmin in Galileo at The Skirball Center (2007), and Dante in Only Children at The Abe Burrows Theatre.
Following graduation, he played the role of Feste in Twelfth Night at the Kirk Theatre off-Broadway (2009) and the role of Eugene in Brighton Beach Memoirs / Broadway Bound in 2010 at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego. Of Uranowitz's appearance as Feste in Twelfth Night, MusicOMH wrote "Uranowitz rocks it... ...playing the fool character with restrained glee," PlayShakespeare.com wrote, "Brandon Uranowitz' effortless command of the language and, again, his willingness to explore his characters' depth makes him absolutely spellbinding." For his performance, Uranowitz received a PlayShakespeare.com Falstaff Award nomination for Best Supporting Performance, Male.
His first role in a major production was as an ensemble member and understudy of Mark in the national tour of Rent. Uranowitz made his Broadway debut in the 2011 jukebox musical Baby It's You!. He played the role of Stanley, the blind composer and son of Florence Greenberg as played by Beth Leavel. In their review of the musical, Variety noted that the "show is continually perked up by... ...Brandon Uranowitz (as a long-suffering press guy and Goldberg's blind son)."
In 2013, he was cast in Michael Kahn's Washington, D.C. production of Torch Song Trilogy. He starred as Arnold in the four-hour unabridged version of the play and was nominated for the Helen Hayes Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Resident Play.
