Christopher Sieber
(February 18, 1968 - living) U.S.A.
Actor
Christopher was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, and grew up in the small town of Wyoming, Minnesota. He attended nearby Forest Lake High School and, after graduating, set out for New York to study acting at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy.
His New York stage credits include Boys in the Band, A Christmas Carol, Pal Joey, and most recently the Broadway musical, Triumph of Love. National tours include The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Meet Me in St. Louis.
In regional theater, he has been involved in a string of world premiere musicals, including Randy Newman's Faust at La Jolla Playhouse, Bill C. Davis and Richard Adler's Off-Key at the George Street Playhouse and Larry Grossman's Paper Moon at Papermill Playhouse.
For television, he has appeared in numerous commercials and in the daytime dramas, All My Children and Another World.
After a successful career on stage in New York and at regional theaters, Christopher makes his television series debut in Two of a Kind.
He can also be seen in the current ABC series It's All Relative. It's a sitcom that deals with two liberal dads (lovers) raising a daughter (Harvard medical student) that wants to marry a guy bartender (not so intellectual) that grew up in a very conservative Irish Catholic family that was taught the whole "Adam and Eve only" routine - so to speak.
Chris is actively involved in the charity organization, Broadway Cares-Equity Fights AIDS. He currently lives in northern New Jersey, and is openly gay (he came out in a 2003 interview).
I was playing the Tony Curtis role in Some Like It Hot at Harrah's in Atlantic City. By the way, I make the ugliest woman in history, Christopher Sieber , and I am about 6' 8" in hair and heels. I looked like some hideous reject from Hairspray.
One change had me getting into female drag in 30 seconds, which meant the dress, boobs, eyelashes, blush, lipstick, wig, jewelry, and shoes. I had four people helping me, and we had it down. I had to change back and forth so many times, though, that I kind of forgot who I was one night.
I went off stage to get into my guy suit and forgot to take off all the girl makeup. (Luckily, I had the presence of mind to take my boobs out.) So I go out to do the scene, looking like some kind of Toni Tennille impersonator and having no idea why the girl playing Sugar could not keep it together and was giggling.
