Egan spent much of her time as a child taking dance, concentrating on ballet and trained as a figure skater from ages five to 10. While attending Los Alamitos High School, the Orange County School of the Arts in Santa Ana, California, and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), she began her career acting in local community theaters and civic light operas. While attending UCLA, Egan took time off when Tommy Tune cast her as Kim MacAfee in his touring production of Bye Bye Birdie. After the tour ended, she was cast in the tour of State Fair and soon afterwards won the coveted role of Belle in the original Broadway cast of Beauty and the Beast in 1994, for which she was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical at the 48th Tony Awards and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actress in a Musical. On Broadway, Egan portrayed Belle for one year and reprised the role in the Los Angeles production in 1995, along with many of the original Broadway cast members. She also starred portraying characters in leading roles in State Fair, Cabaret, Triumph of Love, and Thoroughly Modern Millie. She has performed in one-woman, cabaret-style concerts at venues across the U.S. including the Orange County Performing Arts Center in Costa Mesa, California and at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center in Long Beach, California. Egan has been the headline act performing with more than 60 symphonies and has appeared at the Hollywood Bowl five times including on June 6, 2016, when she appeared alongside Brad Kane as an opening act for Disney's The Little Mermaid Live show. Egan produces live stage productions with two companies she manages: Broadway Princess Party, LLC and 10th & Main Productions. She produces Disney Princess - The Concert, Walt Disney Animation Studios: The Concert and other shows often in partnership with Disney Concerts. On November 10, 2025, Egan was named the official godmother of the Disney Destiny, a Disney Cruise Line ship featuring several spaces inspired by characters she has portrayed, including Café Megara. In December 2025, she was a guest narrator at Disney's Candlelight Processional at Walt Disney World. In 2026, Egan was honored with a Disney Legend Award for her contributions to the company.
