Myles Frost

Myles Frost is an American actor, dancer, and singer. He won the 2022 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for his portrayal of Michael Jackson in the Broadway theatre production of MJ the Musical.

After graduating from high school, Frost entered Belmont University in Nashville where he studied music technology for two years. He transferred from Belmont to Bowie State University as an audio engineering major, but ultimately left school when he was cast as Michael Jackson in the Broadway production of MJ the Musical. Frost earned the role after Ephraim Sykes left the production late in the show's development, and the producers had to locate a new actor rapidly. The production team auditioned many established actors, but none of them were working, and broadened their search. A YouTube video of Frost performing the song "Billie Jean" from a high school talent show drew the attention of the producers, and he was invited to audition; ultimately winning the part.

Earning positive critical attention, Frost won the 2022 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for his portrayal of Michael Jackson in the Broadway theatre production of MJ the Musical. At age 22, he became the youngest-ever recipient of the Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical.
