SETLIST: JRB, ERIVO & BOE AT THE LONDON PALLADIUM 3/24/24

3/27/24

The world has changed a lot since my last concert in London, in 2019, and I’ve changed a lot with it. For reasons both obvious and not, I’ve gone from doing 20 to 30 concerts a year to doing maybe four or five. And so when Lambert Jackson asked whether I would consider doing a solo concert at the London Palladium, I was of course excited but also a little hesitant. Did I have something to say? Did I have the chops to say it? Did anyone still want to listen? That was the challenge, then. Who am I atRead More »

TWO MORE WEEKS OF THE CONNECTOR (and other news)

3/5/24

I’m sitting at my desk working on mixes for the cast album of THE CONNECTOR and it suddenly occurred to me that I should let you know that we only have two weeks left – 16 more performances to watch this incredible cast and hear this incredible band at this wonderful theater on this gorgeous set. I’ll be playing all 16 shows and reveling in the magnificent music that these people make together. So if you haven’t gotten to MCC yet (or if you have and need to get another fix), I hope you’ll come join us.  This has been an absolutely magical experience. Ticket buying info is rightRead More »

“THE CONNECTOR” EXTENDS TO MARCH 17

2/7/24

What, you may ask, is “popular demand”? “Popular demand” is when we’ve been selling so many tickets for The Connector in its world premiere production at MCC Theater that we have extended our run by another two weeks (having extended it once already). Daisy, Jonathan and I have been working so hard on this show for so long, and we are so proud and delighted that it is playing every night to sold-out houses filled with folks who are spreading the word that this is a special experience, an important artistic achievement, and an unmissable event in New York theater.Read More »

LAUNCHING “THE CONNECTOR” (and other news)

11/19/23

Sometimes you get so excited about the fact that tickets are on sale for your new show that you turn on a camera and talk about it for thirteen minutes. Short version: The Connector starts performances on January 12 at MCC Theater with an absolutely glorious cast, including Ben Levi Ross, Hannah Cruz, Jessica Molaskey, Mylinda Hull, Fergie Philippe, and – making his return to the NY stage after thirty-five years – the wondrous Scott Bakula. As you will hear in the video above, this is the first time I’ve gotten to work with Daisy Prince since we did TheRead More »

SET LIST: ME AND MILLIGAN IN INDY, THE CABARET, INDIANAPOLIS IN, 11/3 & 4/23

11/6/23

It’s been 12 years since my last trip to Indianapolis and things have sure changed. The Cabaret’s new purpose-built venue is a wonder, a great room for making and listening to music, with a fantastic piano, great sound, excellent facilities, fantastic accommodating folks running the place, and glorious food! It was a perfect place to bring the wondrous Bonnie Milligan for our first out-of-town concert together, especially since she grew up in the Midwest and her friends and family were able to come cheer us on for our two (two!) completely sold-out shows. It was also my first chance toRead More »
