Sutton Foster, John Lloyd Young, Marc Kudisch, Beth Leavel, Chuck Cooper, Cheyenne Jackson, Norm Lewis, Euan Morton are among the many stars slated to perform in the 3rd annual "Broadway Unplugged" concert, which will be presented at Town Hall on Monday, November 13th at 8 PM.

"The critically acclaimed annual concert offers 'sound design by God,'" according to press notes.  "A concert featuring Broadway stars, Broadway songs, but no microphones recalls the time on Broadway before electronic amplification. For the last two years, audiences have flocked to this show, selling out Town Hall to the rafters – where they have heard some of Broadway's biggest and best voices clear as bell to the back row of that magnificent, landmark 1,500 seat theater. Last year, virtually every single performer was called back by the audience for a second bow."

As with the previous two, "Broadway Unplugged 3" is created, written and hosted by Scott Siegel ("Broadway by the Year," Broadway Cabaret Festival). 

Tony-winners Foster (The Drowsy Chaperone), Young (Jersey Boys), Leavel (The Drowsy Chaperone) and Cooper (Lennon), as well as Tony-nominees Kudisch (See What I Wanna See) and Morton (Taboo), will lead a cast that also includes Broadway and cabaret stars Nancy Anderson (Wonderful Town), Sarah Uriarte Berry (Beauty and the Beast), Bill Daugherty, Jeffry Denman (White Christmas), Lisa Howard (Spelling Bee), Jackson (All Shook Up), Douglas Ladnier, Lewis (upcoming Les Miserables), Liz McCartney (Taboo), William Michals (Beauty and the Beast), Connie Pachl, and surprise special guests in "an evening of – literally -- classic Broadway performances."

Siegel states, "Of all the concerts that I produce, this one seems the most ideally matched between performer and audience; both are hungry for the experience. The performers are excited to put their own talents on the line, while musical theater audiences – sick to death of over-amplified productions – are thrilled to hear these great voices, singing great Broadway songs, the way they it used to be heard."

"Broadway Unplugged" ticket prices range from $75 for the orchestra, to $50 for the front balcony and $25 for the rear balcony. This is the first public announcement of the full cast but tickets are already going fast. They may be purchased now at www.TicketMaster.com or by calling TicketMaster at 212-307-4100. The Town Hall Box Office will begin selling tickets on Friday, October 20th at noon. Town Hall is located at 123 W. 43rd Street in New York City.
