Actor and singer Tony Danza talked with the TODAY anchors about his new act at Café Carlyle and wrapping up his stint in "Honeymoon in Vegas," on Broadway, before touring across NORTH AMERICA with the musical. Says the talented actor, "I always want to be a song and dance man." Watch the appearance below!

As BWW reported earlier this week, stage and screen icon Tony Danza ("Who's The Boss," "Taxi"), who made his acclaimed Broadway return this season in the new musical HONEYMOON IN VEGAS, will hit the road in 2016 in the North American Tour of the production. Additional casting, tour dates and venues will be announced at a later date.

HONEYMOON IN VEGAS opened to rave reviews at the Nederlander Theatre on Broadway on January 15, 2015. Ben Brantley of The New York Times called it "Irresistible. A whole lot of delicious fun. Everything you want it to be." Time Out New York said "Four Stars! Too Damn Fun" andNew York Magazine raved, "Hilarious!"

Danza's performance received glowing reviews, with Ben Brantley of The New York Times saying, "the career-high work here of MR. BROWN and MR. DANZA is so stealthily sophisticated that it takes you a while to realize the sly genius of what they're doing. The cooler-than-cool spirit of The Rat Pack's chairman of the board, Frank Sinatra, is present in Honeymoon, made flesh by TONY DANZA."

Based on the 1992 Castle Rock Entertainment Motion Picture, HONEYMOON IN VEGAS tells the story of Jack Singer, a regular guy with an extreme fear of marriage, who finally gets up the nerve to ask his girlfriend Betsy to marry him. But when they head to Las Vegas to get hitched, smooth talking gambler Tommy Korman (Emmy & Golden Globe nominee Danza) - looking for a second chance at love - falls head over heels for Betsy and sets off on a mission to win her love.
