Emmy and Golden Globe winner Darren Criss brings An Evening with Darren Criss to Paramount Hudson Valley on May 30, 2026, for an intimate and electrifying concert experience. This special evening will feature well-known songs from across Criss’s wildly eclectic career, including music made famous through Glee, his breakout work with StarKid, and the Broadway productions he’s starred in. Uninhibited by genre or format, Criss seamlessly blends pop, rock, musical theater, and storytelling into a dynamic live performance.
Criss first burst onto the pop-culture landscape over a decade ago on FOX’s hit musical series Glee, where his performances of popular songs led to multiple Billboard-topping records and an Emmy nomination for Best Original Music and Lyrics for “This Time,” written for the show’s series finale. Before Glee, he gained massive online recognition as an actor and songwriter for the viral YouTube phenomenon A Very Potter Musical, building a devoted fanbase through StarKid and establishing himself as a singular creative voice.
In addition to his concert work, Criss is a celebrated stage and screen actor and is currently starring in the critically acclaimed Broadway hit Maybe Happy Ending at the Belasco Theatre, directed by Michael Arden and hailed as a New York Times Critics’ Pick. His Broadway credits include Hedwig and the Angry Inch, How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying, and American Buffalo. Whether you know him from television, Broadway, or his music, this performance offers fans a rare opportunity to hear the songs that defined Darren Criss’s career—live on stage in Peekskill at Paramount Hudson Valley.
