Creel, a tireless LGBTQ+ advocate who appeared on Broadway in The Book of Mormon, Hair, Waitress, Into The Woods and, in a Tony-winning performance, Hello, Dolly!, died of a rare, aggressive cancer at just 48 years old on September 30. His death prompted an outpouring of grief within the Broadway community.

MCC Theater presented Creel’s original musical Walk on Through: Confessions of a Museum Novice form November 13, 2023-January 7, 2024. In London, Creel was an Olivier Award winner and recognized for his charity work, particularly for Acting For Others.

Donations in his memory are suggested to be made to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

Broadway will dim its marquee lights on December 3 at 6:45 p.m. ET in his honor. The Off Broadway MCC will also dim its lights in tandem with the Broadway theaters.
