A Tony Award-winning choreographer allegedly danced around his exclusive deal with high-powered real estate firm Douglas Elliman to unload an historic firehouse in Harlem — selling it directly to Al Sharpton instead for $6 million.
Douglas Elliman wants Broadway star George Faison to pay them $360,000 — equal to the 6% commission the company said it should have earned on the sale.
Faison, 80, the first African-American to win a Tony for choreography for his work in 1974’s “The Wiz,” inked an agreement in July 2025 with Douglas Elliman to sell 4 and 6 Hancock Place in South Harlem, the real estate giant said in a lawsuit.
