After two years of celebrating and promoting the vocal talents of Dallas and Fort Worth, Alexandre's Bar's BROADWAY ON A TUESDAY will host an epic celebration featuring a full band and the largest line up of singers to date. Creator Kimberly Billins-Oliver, who serves as the weekly organizer and emcee, will host the anniversary event on Tuesday, August 21st at 7pm.
BROADWAY ON A TUESDAY was first onstage at Alexandre's in August 2016, with Ms. Oliver and singers from the DFW Theatre Community rotating weekly. By 2017, Oliver began producing "Cast Nights," inviting local theatre companies (Uptown Players, The Firehouse Theatre, Music Theatre of Denton, etc.) to show off the talent from their respective productions as an effort to promote the local theatre scene. Guest hosts and frequent performers have included Quintin Jones, Branden Bailey, Kathryn Taylor Rose, Kate Dressler, and Brandon Wilhelm, among others. Pianists Rebecca Lowrey, Mark Mullino, Adam Wright, Kelley Rodriguez, Pamela McLain, Scott Eckart and other local musicians have frequently participated in the weekly performances.
The two-year anniversary party will feature a live band comprised of Adam Wright, Benjamin Brown, Aaron Sutton and Michael Ptacin. Ms. Oliver has invited all singers who have performed at BOAT to reappear for the event; she anticipates over 30 members of the community to perform, making this the largest group to ever take the Alexandre's stage.
As always, admission to Broadway On A Tuesday is FREE with no drink minimum or reservations required. Alexandre's Bar is a LGBT friendly bar located on "The Strip" at 4026 Cedar Springs Rd.
