Broadway's Zachary James (Lurch in The Addams Family) brings his hit solo show IMBÉCILE D'AMOUR to Birdland as part of Jim Caruso's BROADWAY AT BIRDLAND series. The event will take place on Monday, October 18 at 7pm.

IMBÉCILE D'AMOUR is back by popular demand, after a sold-out engagement in NYC and a celebrated turn in Chicago. BroadwayWorld deemed the show a "dark, music hall through-line of love, loss, moving on, and the consequences in between," "startlingly beautiful" and "baritonal bliss." The one-night-only performance will feature Jonathan Rose on piano, Kiersten Cunningham on Violin, Allison Seidner on Cello, Fred Poholek on Guitar, with Shadow Puppetry by Ceili Clemens and special musical arrangements by Larry Lees.

Zachary James is currently starring as Lurch in The Addams Family on Broadway. He has also been seen in South Pacific, Coram Boy, Kristin Hevner's Il Sogno (Oberon), and Bryan Putnam's The Toymaker (Petr). Regional theatre/opera/concert appearances include Sweeney Todd (Sweeney Todd), A Funny Thing...Forum (Miles Gloriosus), La Bohème (Colline), Madama Butterfly (Bonzo), Don Giovanni (Commendatore), Carmina Burana (baritone soloist) and appeared on "30 Rock" as Carl. The Florida native and graduate of Ithaca College is a Kurt Weill Foundation Lotte Lenya Competition winner and founding director of NYC's Metropolis Opera Project.
