This Valentine’s Day Jacques Brel RETURNS will offer a performance on February 14th at 9pm, in addition to a performance on Wednesday, February 22nd at 7pm. Broadway’s Jim Stanek (Lestat, Little Women, …Forum) will guest star at the 2/14 show.
The production, which has been playing at The Triad (158 West 72nd Street) for over a year and performs a few times each month, is an intimate and engaging evening of classic Jacques Brel songs and features a rotating cast of Broadway performers as well as occasional surprise guest performers. The show features timeless and beloved Brel tunes including "Carousel," "My Childhood," "If We Only Have Love," "Ne Me Quitte Pas," "The Bulls," "Amsterdam" and "I Loved."
Also featured in the 2/14 and 2/22 shows will be Ereni Sevasti (The Bacchae at The Public, Carnival at The Kennedy Center), Rick Hip-Flores (who has performed in the pits of Billy Elliot, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and The Radio City Christmas Spectacular), and PJ Baccari. Also featured on 2/22 will be Tamra Hayden (Les Misérables on Broadway) and Arlo Hill (Where’s Charley? at Encores! directed by John Doyle).
Jacques Brel RETURNS is presented by Dan Whitten, Mark Beigelman, Peter Martin and Tiger Theatricals and was originally created by Dan Whitten (who also produced the hit revival and CD of Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris in 2006/2007) and Mark Beigelman.
"Brel's music is timeless and we are thrilled to get to keep it alive at The Triad” says producer Dan Whitten. “We will also be touring the show starting in the spring with Cleveland, where Brel saved The Playhouse Square Theatre back in the early 70's."
Jacques Brel RETURNS plays at The Triad (158 West 72nd Street) each month, with February’s shows taking place on 2/14 at 9pm and 2/22 at 7pm.
