Having created his opportunity to step out of the chorus line in Mighty Real, Anthony Wayne now steps into the spotlight as himself in an eclectic evening of song covering everything from Broadway to R&B to Funk. Featuring songs by artists from Stephen Sondheim and Stephen Schwartz to Burt Bacharach, Katy Perry and Michael Jackson, Wayne (who will celebrate his birthday on June 30th) will take the audience on an inspirational, evolutionary journey that's totally fresh ... and "Fabulous."
