On June 9th, Tony Award-winner Brian Stokes Mitchell signed CDs of his debut solo album for hundreds of fans at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square.

The self-titled album was released on the newly-formed Playbill Records on June 6th. In "Brian Stokes Mitchell," the star sings a host of showtunes and standards, including "Something's Coming," "Pretty Women," "Being Alive," "How Glory Goes," "The Best is Yet to Come" and "How Long Has This Been Going On."

Mitchell made his Broadway debut in the musical Mail in 1988. Ten years later, he skyrocketed to fame (and received a Tony nomination) as the martyred pianist Coalhouse in Ragtime. He won a Tony for his work as Fred/Petruchio in the 1999 Kiss Me Kate revival. He was also nominated for his performance as Don Quixote in his last Broadway outing, the 2002 revival of Man of La Mancha. Other Broadway credits include Oh, Kay!, Kiss of the Spiderwoman and August Wilson's drama King Hedley II; he also appeared in Do Re Mi and Carnival at Encores! He is best-known to TV audiences for having starred on "Trapper John, M.D.," and he has also been seen on "Frasier" and in "Roots." Stokes Mitchell recently appeared at Carnegie Hall in a concert version of South Pacific.
