Wicked's Marty Thomas will perform at Club XL, Dec. 12, with guest stars Antonique Smith (Rent), Gaelen Gilliland and Jared Bortz (Wicked), and Rhett George (Sweet Charity).
Wicked performer Marty Thomas, who kicked off a concert series with his band on Monday December 5, at NYC's Club XL (357 W. 16th St. between 8th and 9th Avenues), will return to the venue on Monday, December 12th.
Thomas will perform his original material with a live band, along with a wide variety of cover tunes, including hits from Wicked. He will be joined by George, Bortz, Gilliland and Smith for pop, rock and showtune duets.
Some of Thomas' other Broadway friends will also stop by to perform. Some former guests include Billy Porter (Ghetto Superstar), Shelley Thomas (Zanna Don't!), Eden Espinosa (Brooklyn), Rhett George (Sweet Charity), Shoshana Bean (Wicked), Michael Longoria (Jersey Boys) and a cavalcade of his fellow Wicked castmates.
Thomas, who is in the Wicked ensemble and who understudies the role of Boq, is a Grammy Award-nominated recording artist, and a "Star Search" Champion ("most widely known as "the guy who beat out Britney Spears with a perfect 4-stars performance!"). Thomas made his Broadway debut in The Secret Garden when he was 11 years old.
Showtime will be at 11 PM and there is no cover charge. Admittance is 21 years of age or older to the nightclub. For more information, visit www.xlnewyork.com or call 646.336.5574. To learn more about Thomas, visit www.martythomas.com; to hear or buy his new album, visit www.cdbaby.com/martythomas.
