On Stage This Week!
Seth Rudetsky, the nationally known Broadway host on SiriusXM radio is presenting his new touring one-man show SETH’S BIG FAT BROADWAY.
Spend some time with Seth and his private video/audio collection and you won’t believe your eyes/ears. Seth will teach the audience how to “deconstruct” what and why something is vocally amazing (Patti LuPone in Evita) and what and why something is a vocal travesty (Madonna singing the same material).
Seth’s enthusiasm for superior vocal talent and his love of theater is infectious and his on-stage delivery never fails to have audiences across the country laughing up a storm.
As the Boston Globe wrote, “it’s a hell of a lot of fun!”
Seth Rudetsky, the nationally known Broadway host from SiriusXM Satellite Radio is
bringing his award-winning, laugh-filled show to Milwaukee!
Using an amazing
collection of audio and video clips, he’ll show the audience what’s brilliant and thrilling
about Broadway as well as what is “hilarious, hideous and horrifying” according to the
Boston Globe.
For example, The Pittsburgh Gazette wrote “Mr. Rudetsky's dueling
Evitas -- Patti LuPone vs. Madonna -- is a love note to the Broadway diva and an
indictment of the pop singer's movie version that will leave you howling.”
Can you
imagine Cher singing all the roles in WEST SIDE STORY? Well, don’t imagine it
because Seth will show you the video! What’s your favorite show? Grease? The Pajama
Game? Hair? Godspell? Whatever it is, you’re sure to get details from Seth you’ve never
heard before.
