Accompanied by a five-piece band, Short will sing and dance his way through Broadway show tunes and funny sketches and, along the way, reprises the most popular roles of his career, including fictional talk show host Jiminy Glick and über nerd Ed Grimley from "Saturday Night Live."  

This performance is presented by the Arsht Center and American Express and sponsored by Your South Florida Lexus Dealers. 

A star of stage and screen, Short has received numerous accolades for his work in the theater including, most recently, a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actor in a Musical (2007) for Fame Becomes Me. He also earned aTony Award nomination, Theatre World Award, and Outer Critics Circle Award for his role alongside Bernadette Peters in the1993 Broadway production of The Goodbye Girl and a Drama Desk and Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for his work in the Neil Simon and Cy Coleman Broadway production of Little Me (1999.)

Since his first standout performance on "Saturday Night Live," Short has created screen-stealing movie and television characters, most notably Ed Grimley, Jiminy Glick and the memorable Franck, the wedding planner in Father of the Bride.
