Danza was most recently seen on Broadway in the hit musical Honeymoon in Vegas. Danza and Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown received rave reviews, including in The New York Times, which boasted, "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." Amongst Danza's previous television experience is his role as attorney Joe Celano on the CBS dramatic series Family Law, his Emmy-nominated performance on David E. Kelley's award-winning series The Practice and ABC's The Tony Danza Show, which he also executive produced.
