He made his Broadway debut at the age of 21 as Chip in George C. Wolfe's revival of "On the Town."

Martin, Martha Plimpton, Hamish Linklater and Lily Rabe. Other theater credits include world premieres of Christopher Shinn's "Where Do We Live" and Michael John LaChiusa's "Little Fish," as well as Sir Robin in "Spamalot" and Leo Bloom in "The Producers" – both at the Hollywood Bowl.

A longstanding advocate for marriage equality, Ferguson co-founded Tie The Knot in 2012 with his husband, where they design limited edition bow ties with all the proceeds going to various organizations that fight for LGBTQ equality around the world.
