Life and career

He started as a dancer, after taking dance lessons, but then was chosen by Susan Stroman to be associate choreographer for the West End Royal National Theatre production of Oklahoma! (1998), and she later chose him to assist her on the Broadway musical The Producers. Carlyle moved to New York in 2000.[1]

Carlyle was both director and choreographer of the Broadway revival of Finian's Rainbow in 2009, for which he received Drama Desk Award nominations for Outstanding Choreography and Outstanding Director of a Musical.[2] He was the choreographer and co-director of the new musical Limelight: The Story of Charlie Chaplin, which premiered at the La Jolla Playhouse, San Diego, California, in 2010,[3] and which ran on Broadway in 2012 as Chaplin.[4]

He was the choreographer for the Kennedy Center production of Follies (2011), with Eric D. Schaeffer as director.[5] The two worked together on the Kennedy Center production of Mame in 2006. This production transferred to Broadway and then to Los Angeles, both in limited engagements. Carlyle received a nomination for the 2012 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Choreography.

Carlyle was the choreographer for the Broadway productions of The Mystery of Edwin Drood in 2012,[6] A Christmas Story: The Musical in 2012[7] and After Midnight in 2013, (which he also directed).
