THE BROADWAY MUSICALS OF 1946
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 13th
AT THE TOWN HALL
The Town Hall (123 West 43 Street) has signed Tony Award winner, Ben Davis (Baz Luhrmann’s La Boheme) Award-winning Jazz singer Marilyn Maye, who Ella Fitzgerald referred to as “the greatest white female singer in the world,” Dameka Hayes, Audelco Award Nominee for It Ain’t Nothing But The Blues and Jessie Mueller, who made her Broadway debut in On a Clear Day…, to perform in THE BROADWAY MUSICALS OF 1946 on Monday, February 13, 2012 at 8pm. This concert marks the season opener for The Town Hall’s acclaimed Broadway By The Year series, which is created, written and hosted by Scott Siegel for The Town Hall. The previously announced cast includes Alice Ripley, the Tony Award winning star of Next to Normal, Tom Wopat (Tony Award nominated for his role of Frank Butler in Annie Get Your Gun revival, Catch Me if You Can), and Noah Racey (Curtains), who will also choreograph and direct. The evening will feature song and dance from Irving Berlin’s classic Annie Get Your Gun and other musicals including Call Me Mister, St. Louis Woman and If The Shoe Fits. Ross Patterson is the musical director.
Broadway By The Year takes the audience on a musical journey through the best of the Great White Way, featuring show-stopping numbers as well as lesser-known gems and little known facts and humor about our favorite shows. The New York Times called the series “an event that is treasured by Broadway babies.” This season’s shows will also include the Broadway Musicals of 1950, 1975 and 1987.
“One of the reasons for the longevity of Broadway by the Year is the depth of commitment to the series that so many Broadway stars have made,” said Scott Siegel. “In addition our audience is passionate about its love for show music and they represent the link between Broadway past and present, loving the old music while warmly embracing our current stars. That unique combination of passions has resulted in a Broadway music series entering its twelfth season not simply as four one-night only concerts, but rather as four one night only events!”
