Tap Soul Productions will bring back "The JL Show" an original tap dance and soul music concert, May 17th thru May 22nd, 2016 at the Hudson Guild Theatre 441 West 26th Street New York, NY 10001.

This highly anticipated engagement will run for eight performances and will star international tap dancing theater veteran J.L. Williams, who also is the creator and songwriter of the show.

This will mark J.L. Williams first stage appearance after being reportedly missing and found in a NYC hospital back in February on Valentine's Day 2016. Williams states "He has recovered swiftly, is doing well since being out of the hospital over a month ago, has taken a retreat to Playa del Carmen, Mexico and is looking forward to returning to the stage in the spring."

The show's music arrangements are by Ian Jesse, Music Direction by Coyote Anderson who plays guitar, David Cornejo on Drums, Carl Limbacher on bass, Dorian Wallace on keyboard with background vocals by LaDonna Burns and Gia McGlone.

The show features original music, singing and, of course, lots of tapping to tell a tale about resilience, redemption, and perseverance with big hearts and big sounds. Running time is 90 minutes and show dates and times are Tuesday May 17th thru Saturday May 22nd at 8PM with Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday Matinees at 3:30PM. Doors open a half hour before show times and seating is first come first served.

Audiences should expect to leave the theatre moved, and inspired by this original, raw, toe tapping, and fun concert. General Admission is $20 - $27. Tickets can be purchased at www.tapsoul.eventbrite.com or on the shows official website www.tapsoulpro.com/events
