At the curtain call of the July 12 matinee performance of A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles, patrons were met with a surprise when Neil Diamond, in front of a sold-out audience of over 2,600 cheering fans, led everyone in a sing-along of his iconic song, “Sweet Caroline." After taking his final bow, Nick Fradiani (‘Neil Diamond – Then’), introduced the music legend from the stage as Diamond appeared in the middle of the orchestra right section, holding a glittering microphone while patrons cheered.
Diamond then went backstage to greet the entire company of A Beautiful Noise, including taking pictures and sharing stories alongside his wife, Katie Diamond and members of his family.
