    COLUMBIA, S.C. (WSAV) – Broadway dancer Zelig Williams, who performed in “Hamilton” and “MJ” went missing over a week ago in the Columbia, S.C. area , NBC reports.

    Williams, 28, was reportedly staying with his mother in the city and had been hosting specialized dance workshops.

    His mother, Kathy, last saw her son on the morning of Oct. 3 and everything “seemed normal when he left.”

    Later that day, one of Williams’ friends living in New York City reached out to Kathy to say they received an SOS alert on their phone on Oct. 3 suggesting that the dancer had been in a car crash.

    Two days afterward, his car was discovered in the early hours of Oct. 5 parked in a lot for the Palmetto Trail, near Wateree, South Carolina, with no signs of a crash.

    His mother asked anyone with information to reach out to the Richland County Sheriff’s Department. While also warning that he may be in a vulnerable state when he is found due to the need for medication.

    “And please keep sharing on social media… and don’t just like it,” Kathy said. “Share it far and wide, share it with all the people that they know, because it will spread even more.”

    Williams also traveled with Hugh Jackman on the actor’s tour, “The Man. The Music. The Show.” Jackman posted about Zelig Williams to his Instagram stories over the weekend.

    “Please… if anyone has any information as to the whereabouts of ZELIG WILLIAMS, please reach out to your local authorities,” Jackman wrote over a photo of the dancer. “ZELIG, we love you and are praying for your safe return.”
