Joe Langworth (born July 19, 1966) is an American singer and dancer. From 1990 - 2005, Langworth appeared in a number of major Broadway musicals, including the closing company of A Chorus Line, the Tony Award-winning production of Ragtime with Audra McDonald, Marin Mazzie and Brian Stokes Mitchell, and the 2001 revival of Stephen Sondheim's Follies. He was also assistant dance captain of the national tour of the Tony Award-winning musical Thoroughly Modern Millie.
He grew up in Port Chester, NY and attended the State University of New York at Geneseo, where he studied communications.
In 2006, Langworth retired from performing to join the New York-based casting agency, Bernard Telsey Casting, Inc. In recent years, the Telsey agency has supplied casts for Broadway productions like Rent, The Color Purple, The Wedding Singer and Three Days of Rain which starred screen legend Julia Roberts. In a February 26, 2006 article in the New York Times entitled "Far From the Spotlight, the True Powers of Broadway," Jesse McKinley named it one of the premier casting agencies in New York. At Telsey, Langworth is responsible for musical theater casting.
His partner is Jim Jones, former press secretary to Senator John Kerry (D-MA).
