Hal Prince

Hal Prince (born January 30, 1928), full name Harold Smith Prince, is a theatre producer and director associated with many of the best-known Broadway musical (and less notably, dramatic) productions of the past half-century. He was born in New York City, and began work in the theatre as an assistant stage manager to legendary theatrical producer and director George Abbott. Along with Abbott, he co-produced The Pajama Game, which won the 1955 Tony Award for Best Musical, and was followed by a string of successes. His early work with Stephen Sondheim on West Side Story led to a long string of collaborations including Company, Follies, and Sweeney Todd. After the disappointing Merrily We Roll Along, they did not work together again until Bounce. He directed two of Andrew Lloyd Webber's successes, Evita and The Phantom of the Opera Prince won his twentieth Tony Award in 1995 for Best Direction of the musical revival Show Boat, making him the record holder for most Tony Awards won.
   
He married Judy Chaplin, daughter of Saul Chaplin. They are parents of actress Daisy Prince.
