Rewind to 2008 when the Broadway cast of Rent took BroadwayWorld behind the scenes!

This time, the reader question was: How many different roles has one actor been contracted to play in the same Broadway production?

Jaime Cepero's solo show at 54 Below place him at the front of the line for promising emerging artists.

54 BELOW will present JAIME CEPERO’S SONGS ABOUT ANXIETY 2.0 on August 17th 2022 at 930pm. Part ritual, part therapy, part queer kiki session, Songs About Anxiety 2.0 is the second installment of the concert performance showcasing original work from Afrolatinx actor, writer, and Gold Anthem Award recipient Jaime Cepero.

'On the 11th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...' the opportunity to share some real joy with you, from my heart. I'd be crazy not to include this video in my choices of 12, on the penultimate day of this fun feature from BroadwayWorld. Yes... it's ME! Last year, my first ever Christmas album was released and this was truly a dream I had fantasized for quite a while, coming to fruition. Richard Jay-Alexander and I produced it (during August), like most holiday albums, and Richard played me this song written by Jay Landers and Walter Afanasieff. He insisted we had to do it and I certainly loved it, but wasn't sure I had the right voice for it. Walter, of course, wrote and produced 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' with Mariah Carey and, now, here was a song written by the same guy, this time with Jay Landers.
