Tim Realbuto to Return to the Met Room with 'BECAUSE I CAN' BC/EFA Benefit

Tim Realbuto, the popular singer and actor, who previously sold out engagements at the Metropolitan Room and other venues across the city, will return to the Met Room with the all-new BC/EFA benefit show "BECAUSE I CAN," featuring surprise Broadway guest stars, a full band, and a raffle!

2016 Thespis Award Nominee Tim Realbuto will return on May 5th with an all-new show entitled "Tim Realbuto: BECAUSE I CAN."

Mr. Realbuto is most known for his starring performances in the award nominated play 'The Weak Ones'; as well as the critically acclaimed (and extended) Off-Broadway hit 'YES' at The Manhattan Repertory Theatre. He is the co-writer of the Broadway aimed musical 'Ghostlight' (along with Matthew Martin), and is well known for touring his one man show 'Tim Realbuto: Wunderkind' for well over a year.

On TV, he was featured on "The Sopranos"; "Law and Order: SVU"; as well as two seasons as co-host on Nickelodeon's "The Big Help." His many film credits include 'The Emperor's Club' opposite Kevin Kline; 'Sex and the City: The Movie'; Disney's 'Enchanted'; and Woody Allen's 'Deconstructing Harry.'

In Tim Realbuto: BECAUSE I CAN, expect an evening of this up and coming New York star singing the songs he loves to sing. Sondheim, Lady Gaga, and everything in between. And he will sing it all because it's his concert and... well, because he can.

The show will feature Broadway guest stars singing duets with Tim include Laurissa Romain, South Pacific and Chris Rock's Film, "Top Five", a full band, raffle prizes and a 20 person chorus. Musical direction will be provided by Julianne B. Merrill ('Allegro')."

A portion of the evening's proceeds will go directly to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids. All guest stars will be announced in the coming weeks. Tickets, starting at $24, are available by visiting metropolitanroom.com/event.cfm?id=252059&cart.
