There is more and more cross-pollination these days from theater to television, especially at NBC, and we&#8217;re excited to see where he and Flody&#8217;s instincts and talent relationships will go in the world of television.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been obsessed with storytelling since the fourth grade,&#8221; said Seller. &#8220;Having now spent over 30 years telling stories on stage, I&#8217;m excited by the opportunity Bob has given me (and Flody) to stretch my muscles and apply my craft to television. I couldn&#8217;t be happier to be with NBCUniversal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suarez added: &#8220;I started my TV career at NBC and am thrilled to be back working with old friends at my first home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>NBC has been bringing a number of Broadway productions to a broadcast audience. In 2013, the network aired <em>The Sound of Music Live!<\/em> to nearly 22 million viewers. That was followed by <em>Peter Pan Live!<\/em> and <em>The Wiz Live!<\/em> On December 7, NBC will air <em>Hairspray Live!<\/em> and in early 2017 the network will bring viewers Aaron Sorkin&#8217;s <em>A Few Good Men Live!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNIVERSAL CITY: Universal Television has entered a production deal with Hamilton producer Jeffrey Seller and producing partner Flody Suarez to produce upcoming projects for the studio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[669,670,344],"class_list":["post-7054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-flody-suarez","tag-jeffrey-seller","tag-universal-television"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Hamilton Producer Jeffrey Seller &amp;
