Denman, Cuccioli, O’Malley & More Set For THE BROADWAY MUSICALS OF 1966 5/10

The Town Hall's critically acclaimed Broadway by the Year's®10th Anniversary Season presents The Broadway Musicals of 1966, a year that brought us renowned musicals such as, Cabaret, Mame, I Do! I Do!, and more. Overflowing with famous songs from major hit shows, the evening features more dance numbers than any other Town Hall Broadway by the Year® concert this season. Directed, choreographed and starring Jeffry Denman (who will be going to Broadway next season with this year's Off-Broadway hit musical, Yank!, which he also choreographed) promises to make this a concert event chock full of fancy footwork. He will be joined on stage by some of New York's best singer/dancers, including Meredith Patterson (White Christmas), Shonn Wiley (Drama Desk Nominee for My Vaudeville Man), Kerry O'Malley (White Christmas), as well as two fabulous talents new to Broadway by the Year, Jenn Rias, and Elizabeth Clinard. Vocalists in the show will also include two-time Tony Nominee Liz Callaway and the legendary star of Jekyll & Hyde on Broadway, Robert Cuccioli. More stars will be announced soon.

Tickets are $50 & $45 and are on sale through TicketMaster, 800-982-2787, www.ticketmaster.com, or The Town Hall Box Office between noon and 6 PM (except Sundays) at 123 West 43rd Street, 212-840-2824.

"This season has been remarkable so far," said Scott Siegel, the creator/writer/host of Town Hall's Broadway by the Year®. "And I only see it getting more and more exciting. The Town Hall shows have a reputation for being fast-paced and full of great energy and the upcoming 1966 concert should make that point loud and clear with some of the finest Broadway dancers an audience will see on any Broadway stage. Jeffry Denman has choreographed and directed some of our most memorable Broadway by the Year® concerts in the last few years and I'm sure this new show on May 10 will be no different. After all, look at the help he's going to have on the Town Hall stage: Liz Callaway and Robert Cuccioli, to name just two extraordinary Broadway stars, and a cast of superlative dancers. I think the show is going to be something special."
