SubCulture's scheduled Jason Robert Brown concert, featuring guest artist Sierra Boggess, has been cancelled tonight due to inclement weather, it was announced this afternoon.

"Due to the potential dangers posed by the blizzard currently moving into New York City, we regret to inform you that tonight's Jason Robert Brown performance has been cancelled. Please know that it takes a very special set of circumstances to prompt a cancellation at SubCulture, and given the warnings from city and state officials, we believe this to be the right decision."

Tomorrow's Dave Gorman concert has also been cancelled.

Jason Robert Brown is the ultimate multi-hyphenate - an equally skilled composer, lyricist, conductor, arranger, orchestrator, director and performer - best known for his dazzling scores to several of the most renowned musicals of his generation, including "The Bridges of Madison County," for which Jason received the 2014 Tony Awards for Best Score and Best Orchestrations, the recently revived "The Last Five Years", his debut song cycle "Songs for a New World", and the seminal "Parade", winner of the 1999 Best Score Tony. The New York Times refers to Jason as "a leading member of a new generation of composers who embody high hopes for the American musical."

Honeymoon In Vegas, starring Tony Danza and based onAndrew Bergman's film, opens on Broadway on tomorrow, following a triumphant production last fall at Paper Mill Playhouse. A film version of Jason's epochal Off-Broadway musical "The Last Five Years" will be released in early 2015, starring Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan and directed by Richard LaGravenese, and a film of Jason's musical "13" is currently in development. Jason will be conducting "Parade" at Avery Fisher Hall in an all-star concert performance in February 2015, and he is in the midst of recording a followup to his solo CD, "Wearing Someone Else's Clothes."

Jason studied composition at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, N.Y., with Samuel Adler, Christopher Rouse, and Joseph Schwantner. He lives with his wife, composer Georgia Stitt, and their daughters in New York City. Jason is a proud member of the Dramatists Guild and the American Federation of Musicians Local 802 & 47.
