Remy Zaken Joins Tim Realbuto's Concert

Award-winning New York based writer and performer Tim Realbuto, who will star in the upcoming motion picture YES (based on his stage play of the same name), will bring his popular 'Because I Can' concert series to an end at the Triad Theatre on Friday, February 9th, 2018 at 7:00 PM. He premiered his first 'Because I Can' concert at The Metropolitan Room last April and performed part two earlier this month at The Triad. The Metropolitan Room has been the producer of all three 'Because I Can' shows, but the second incarnation and now the third and final one will be performed at The Triad as The Metropolitan Room is in the middle of moving locations.

In 'Tim Realbuto: BECAUSE I CAN - PART III', expect an evening of songs that Realbuto has always wanted to sing ranging from Sondheim to Fiona Apple. You can also expect a full ensemble, Broadway guest stars, prize giveaways, and a band led by Julianne B. Merrill (who will also sing), Realbuto's long-time musical director. Realbuto, who co-wrote the musical 'Ghostlight' with best friend Matthew Martin, will also sing an original song from the hit NYMF show, with Mr. Martin at the piano.
