On Thursday, January 25th at 7:00 PM, an encore performance of JERRY ORBACH’S BROADWAY will be presented at 54 Below, 254 West 54th Street, NYC. This evening of music will again honor the beloved performer who started out Off-Broadway in The Threepenny Opera and The Fantasticks, then went on to star in such Broadway shows as Carnival, Promises, Promises, Chicago, and 42nd Street before beginning a final chapter in his career that included work in films and his iconic television role of Lt. Lennie Briscoe in Law & Order. The show’s cast is headed by Broadway veterans William Michals (Parade, South Pacific, etc.) and Jay Aubrey Jones (Cats, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying), along with Patrick Michael Wickham (The Phantom of the Opera, title role, int’l tour). There will also be special guest appearances by two of Jerry Orbach’s stage co-stars, Anita Gillette (Carnival, Guys & Dolls) and Lee Roy Reams (42nd Street), and by Jerry’s sons, Chris Orbach and Tony Orbach, who will reminisce about their father and his career.
JERRY ORBACH’S BROADWAY is produced and directed by Michael Portantiere, with Matthew Martin Ward as musical director/pianist.
