Following the sold out performance of Jeremy Jordan's cabaret Breaking Character, The Abbey has announced additional Broadway stars that will be performing in the all-new Broadway Spotlight Series. Two-time Tony Award winner Norbert Leo Butz will return to The Abbey in March to perform his cabaret Girls, Girls, Girls. Additional performances include Brad Bradley, Melissa van der Schyff, and Paul Anthony Stewart.

On March 7 at 8 p.m., Broadway sensation Norbert Leo Butz returns to The Abbey with his hit new show Girls, Girls, Girls. Focusing on the female - both the mythic and the contemporary, Girls, Girls, Girls features music from the likes of Elvis Costello, Loretta Lynn, Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash. Butz, who took home Tony Awards for his performances in Catch Me If You Can and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, has also starred on Broadway in Big Fish, The Last Five Years, Thou Shalt Not and Rent. Tickets for Girls, Girls, Girls are $50 for general admission and $75 for VIP, which includes reserved table seating and a meet and greet with Norbert after the show.

On February 23 at 8 p.m., get cozy with Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle nominee Melissa van der Schyff in an intimate concert of lush jazz standards, a few country classics and some engaging originals. Van der Schyff is a singer, songwriter and actor best known for originating the role of Blanche Barrow in Broadway's Bonnie & Clyde, for which she garnered both Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle nominations. She is joined by award-winning jazz pianist, composer and arranger Sharon Minemoto. Tickets for Melissa van der Schyff and Sharon Minemoto are $40 for general admission and $60 for VIP, which includes reserved table seating and a meet and greet with Melissa after the show.

Broadway veteran Brad Bradley, who has appeared in Spamalot, Billy Elliot, Annie Get Your Gun and Steel Pier, takes the stage at The Abbey on March 2 at 8 p.m. with his brand new cabaret B Squared. The musical journey of a young boy struggling with his sexuality, coming out of the closet, searching for authenticity and then achieving the life of his dreams, B Squared is a night of silly song and dance that teeters above and below the surface, at times touches a nerve, but mostly hits the funny bone. Tickets for B Squared are $30 for general admission and $50 for VIP, which includes reserved table seating and a meet and greet with Brad after the show.

Rounding out the newest additions to The Abbey's Broadway Spotlight Series, Paul Anthony Stewart brings his show Nice 'n Easy to the stage on March 16 at 8 p.m. Direct from NYC where he is currently appearing in BEAUTIFUL, Paul explores all things "nice" and "easy" that will include songs from stage and screen, as well as some anecdotes about everything from his time on "Guiding Light" to his time on the Great White Way. Tickets to Paul Anthony Stewart's Nice 'n Easy are $40 for general admission and $60 for VIP, which includes reserved table seating and a meet and greet with Paul after the show.
