Career

In August 2013, while still attending Carnegie Mellon, Selig was cast as the standby for the lead role of Elder Kevin Price in Broadway production of The Book of Mormon. He remained with the company as its standby for three months, earning credit towards his undergraduate degree via independent study. Months later in December of that same year, Selig joined the second national touring production of The Book of Mormon again as a standby for the role of Elder Price.

Selig left The Book of Mormon tour on July 26, 2014 to begin rehearsals for the national tour of the musical, Pippin, in which he was cast as the musical’s titular character. Selig rehearsed with the touring company of Pippin but was placed on vocal rest just one week before the tour was scheduled to open. He was then replaced by Matthew James Thomas, who originated the role of Pippin in the recent Broadway revival. Despite being said to be on a medical leave of absence, Selig never rejoined the touring company; but instead, when Thomas left the production, he was replaced by Kyle Dean Massey. In interviews, Selig has alluded to being fired “from one of his first big jobs,” but has never publicly confirmed his being fired from the Pippin tour.

Selig rejoined the Broadway cast of The Book of Mormon in February 2015 as an ensemble replacement and Elder Price standby. His first performance as Elder Price on Broadway took place on April 15, 2015. For six weeks in early 2016, he led the Broadway company of The Book of Mormon as Elder Price, replacing Gavin Creel, who left the production to star in She Loves Me. On February 21, 2016, Selig left the production and was replaced by Nic Rouleau.

Career of Kyle Selig & The Book of Mormon

As a stand-in or understudy, Kyle Selig performed in the 2011 performance of The Book of Mormon.

Pippin, Kyle Selig

On July 26, 2014, Kyle Selig left the Book of Mormon tour to start getting ready for the national premiere of the musical Pippin, in which he portrayed the lead. Even though Selig trained with Pippin’s traveling ensemble, he was only given a week of voice rest before Kyle started the tour. The most impressive rating at the time was Pippin’s on IMDb.

Matthew James Thomas, who played Pippin in the current Broadway show, then took Kyle’s position.
