The Duplex Cabaret Theatre (61 Christopher St.) will continue its Broadway Downtown series on Monday, March 13th at 9:30pm, with a concert performed by Michael Longoria, currently on Broadway in Jersey Boys.
"Broadway Downtown, now its second year, is an acclaimed series of The Duplex Cabaret Theatre, featuring one night only concerts from some of our favorite Broadway performers," according to press notes. Past participants have included Judy Blazer, Kristy Cates, Darius DeHaas, Barrett Foa, Karen Mason, Sally Mayes, Christiane Noll, Kate Shindle, Marty Thomas and Barbara Walsh.
Longoria is a new singer-songwriter on the rise. The release of his debut album,
Under 1000 Shades of Blue, has brought Longoria recognition in New York's downtown music scene and continues to reach new fans across the country. Currently in the cast of Broadway's
Jersey Boys, Longoria plays a 17-year old
Joe Pesci. He also plays his original music on his off nights around the city. "Writing from personal stories, his songs tell intimate tales of life through complex lyrics. His music inspires audiences to think beyond the catchy melodies he creates with his unique, soulful tenor. Michael's music is an original fusion of pop, folk and soul and his live performances are a must see."
Anne Runolfsson, currently playing Carlotta in the Broadway company of
The Phantom of the Opera, will also perform at the Duplex at 6 PM as part of the Broadway Downtown series, February 27th.
There is a $10 cover charge, as well as a two-drink minimum for Longoria's show. Credit cards are accepted, and no one under 21 will be permitted without written permission. Persons under the age of 21 who wish to attend must acknowledge that they are under 21 when making reservations, and written permission will be granted.
