For one night only on Friday 22 March, John Foreman and the Australian Pops Orchestra will grace Costa Hall – Geelong with musical theatre stars Marina Prior, Michael Cormick and Jemma Rix for the Best of Broadway.
Following the success of last year’s sell-out performance Leading Ladies, John Foreman and the 30-piece Australian Pops Orchestra will illuminate Costa Hall once more in a stunning display of musicianship, celebration and laughter.
The dazzling concert of Broadway hits and fabulous show-tunes will be performed by a glittering line up of star performers, including Australia’s First Lady of Song, Marina Prior; extraordinary baritone and international superstar, Michael Cormick; and the incredible Jemma Rix, known best for her leading roles as Elphaba in Wicked and Elsa in Frozen.
John Foreman is a musical director, pianist and composer, who has played integral roles behind the scenes of the likes of Australian Idol, Vision Australia’s Carols By Candlelight, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Opening Ceremony and many more impressive music demonstrations.
“Best of Broadway represents a culmination of Geelong Arts Centre’s dedication to curating exceptional experiences for audiences by not only showcasing the timeless allure of musical theatre, but also celebrating the incredible depth of Australian talent,” said Penny McCabe, Geelong Arts Centre, Head of Programming.
Best of Broadway is a memorable night in the theatre, celebrating the songs, stories and triumphs that are synonymous with the wonderful world of Broadway.
