A fan of the website for years, Jarrod is thrilled to be writing for BWW! Having been a performer for a couple of decades, Mr. Cafaro cut his teeth in the cabaret rooms of yesterday. Starting as a waiter in the piano bar and cabaret rooms, he eventually made his debut as a performer upstairs at Eighty-Eights, receiving rave reviews in the New York Post, and a MAC nomination for male debut. This led to a string of shows and singing gigs at clubs and venues all over NYC. Some highlights include shows at Don’t Tell Mama, Judy’s (Chelsea), and being featured in two of Scott and Barbara Siegel’s events and concerts at Town Hall. First, he appeared in the Songs of WW2, where he had the impossible task of having to follow Karen Mason’s opening number, and then Cafaro was in their Kander and Ebb tribute where he was lucky enough to reprise A Little Bit Of Good, Mary Sunshine’s number from Chicago. As an actor, Jarrod had the good fortune of performing across the US, Europe, and Asia. Some highlights include Chicago (Mary Sunshine, National Tour, and China), Cats (National Tour), A Chorus Line (National and European Tour), Jeffrey (Darius/Clarke Th, Lincoln Center), and the singular distinction of doing dueling sopranos with Grammy Award winner Sandi Patty, while dressed as a Hot Dog, for the Indianapolis and Baltimore symphony orchestras.
