Cadden Jones returns to the stage, headlining a limited engagement spring concert series to benefit The Harmony Program, a not-for-profit music education organization, on Saturday, March 26 at 7PM and Saturday, April 2 at 7PM at the Triad Theatre, 152 West 72nd Street. Broadway composer/conductor Phil Hall is the Musical Director and Aimee Francis directs.

Cadden Jones -- THE GLORY OF LOVE is a gritty, fresh and comedic glimpse at the 'urban evolution' of a modern young woman adjusting to life in Manhattan. A lighthearted and swift 60-minute cabaret celebration of battling conformity and using music as a means to do so, the commercial and print queen of Manhattan and lead soloist for the USO Liberty Belles confronts everything from school bullying and father/daughter dynamics to the discovery of men, sex and gay bff's!

A polished and poised exterior collides with the raw emotions of an everyday twenty-something against the backdrop of timeless songs like "Fever," "Being Alive," "Get Happy/Happy Days are Here Again," "Bewitched," "Side by Side," "The Glory of Love," "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and more! Special guests include Ryan Murray (Lone Star Love), Linda Sue Moshier and Alecia Evans of Nobody's Business, and children from the charitable organization, Harmony Program, which proceeds to the event will benefit. Please note there is NO drink minimum for this special show.

"The Harmony Program is very pleased to be collaborating with Cadden Jones," said Anne Fitzgibbon, founder and Executive Director of the Harmony Program. "By dedicating her performances to the Harmony Program, she is helping bring music making and its many benefits into the lives of more of the city's children."

The Harmony Program provides daily after-school music lessons to children from economically disadvantaged communities. Harmony's unique model taps the city's college and graduate-level music students as teachers, training them to develop the talents of young people who would not ordinarily be exposed to music education. Participating New York City school children are provided with musical instruments, daily after-school music classes, and cultural events...all free of charge.
Cadden Jones, originally from Atlanta, GA, discovered her passion for acting and singing at an early age. A graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts/CAP21, Cadden has performed with The Liberty Belles on tour for veterans and active US military as lead first soprano and musical ambassador. Currently appearing in numerous television commercials, web series and print ads seen nationally and internationally, her most recent work includes: New York Life Insurance, Wal-Mart, Bank of America, Clinique and The Onion. TV & Film credits include: "Karen" The Absence (Dir: Alex DeMille); "Young Marian" The Teacher; "Isabella" The Other One; and the voice of Flora (the southern belle) in WINX Club on the Cartoon Network.

Throughout his career, Phil Hall (Musical Director) has created significant achievements in just about every aspect of the musical theater industry. On Broadway, he was the conductor for Play Me A Country Song and was the associate conductor for the revival of Mame, which starred Angela Lansbury. Phil was also the musical director and conductor for dozens of productions including Phantom, the national tour of CATS, Side By Side By Sondheim, The Merry Widow, 42nd Street, The Desert Song and The Wizard of Oz. Throughout the United States his work was featured at such renown venues as the Kennedy Center, the Paper Mill Playhouse, Atlanta's Theater of the Stars, Houston's Theatre Under The Stars, Seattle's Fifth Avenue Theatre and the Michigan Opera Theatre.
