If you want to make an impact in the world of theatre, what better way than to make your Broadway debut on the same stage as Grammy nominated recording artist Josh Groban? Step forward Denée Benton.

.. The American actress and Carnegie Mellon University alumni only graduated in 2014 but her career is going from strength to strength as she prepares to star in new musical Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812, this September. Having gone from playing Nabulungi in the touring production of The Book of Mormon to starring alongside Groban - who also makes his Broadway debut in the show - 2016 is shaping up to be Benton's year. Her talent isn't limited to the stage either as she's also just been announced as a regular in Lifetime's hit series UnReal.
