Modern Jazz Meets Musical Theatre at The Encore Musical Theatre Company

What happens when you take the Great American Songbook of Musical Theatre and hand it over to a collaboration of Broadway vocalists and global Jazz artists for fresh creative interpretation?
A night at The Encore Cabaret: Modern Jazz Meets Musical Theatre!

This event will bring together global jazz artist Kahil El’ Zabar’s Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, Musical Theatre vocalists: Jessica Grové - our own Encore star; Michael McElroy - Chair of the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance; Jason Briggs - Encore's Managing Director and star of Smokey Joe's Café and Queen; and Arielle Crosby - A native of Detroit who is on Broadwayworld.com's list of "People To Watch in Cabaret and Concert in 2022"; and the incomparable Jazz vocalist Dwight Trible, all the way from Los Angeles.

Songs will include such classics as:
All That Jazz, Some Enchanted Evening, All the Things You Are, Route 66 and many more...

"We are extremely fortunate to have assembled this level of elite talent on the Encore stage," says board member and co-producer, Steve Elliott, "Jazz, which is America’s only indigenous art form, and Musical Theatre have influenced each other for over 100 years, and that process continues with a truly unique experience at The Encore! We envision these performances to be the beginning of a longer term initiative to create original productions around the interplay of Jazz and Musical Theatre."

This is one show you won't want to miss!
