“Anyone who loves Broadway musicals is in for a treat with this lively and well-executed cabaret-style event,” said Richard T. Bryant, President & CEO of the center. “Producer Neil Berg has created and staged Broadway concerts around the world, and 100 Years of Broadway, his biggest hit ever, is touring across the nation. The production is remarkable, the songs are everyone’s favorites, and the singers are first-rate. The word is that this performance has garnered more positive audience comment at many venues than any other event this year – and every venue they’ve played wants them back as soon as possible.”
Hosted by Neil Berg, who also plays piano with the show’s all-star band, 100 Years of Broadway spotlights the songs of musical theater’s greatest composers, including Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Kander and Ebb, Andrew Lloyd Webber and many more. The music is performed by a cast of five powerhouse singers direct from leading roles on Broadway and Off-Broadway: Erick Buckley (Les Miserables, The Phantom of the Opera, Grease), Carter Calvert (It Ain’t Nothin’ But the Blues, Forbidden Broadway), Rita Harvey (The Phantom of the Opera, Fiddler on the Roof), Ray McLeod (Jekyll & Hyde, Wonderful Town) and Danny Zolli (Jesus Christ Superstar, Chess).
The song list may vary slightly from venue to venue, but will feature beloved tunes such as “Some Enchanted Evening” (South Pacific), “All That Jazz” (Chicago), “The Impossible Dream” (Man of La Mancha), “Cabaret” (Cabaret), “Don’t Cry for Me, Argentina” (Evita), “All I Ask of You” (The Phantom of the Opera), “Being Alive” (Company), “This is the Moment” (Jekyll & Hyde), “Gethsemane” (Jesus Christ Superstar), “Seasons of Love” (Rent), “Memory” (Cats) and many more.
