Jason Kravits Adds Special Guest Tony Danza For Show at Joe's Pub
The performance is on July 26.
Television and Broadway star, Jason Kravits, will return to Joe's Pub on Friday evening, July 26, 2024 with his critically acclaimed solo show, “OFF the TOP!” - an unforgettable evening of spontaneous music and comedy -with a portion of the show benefiting The Creative Coalition. Joining Jason will be special guest star, Tony Danza.
What is OFF the TOP! – As the curtain rises and the first notes resonate, Jason Kravits steps into the spotlight armed with nothing but his wit -no script, no songs, no stories, no narrative arc. He then embarks on an interactive adventure of pure improvisation. Drawing from audience suggestions, Kravits weaves a tapestry of comedy and melody, crafting a full, life story in song where every lyric and tune is conjured in the moment.
A Fusion of Music, Comedy, and Unbridled Creativity – Acclaimed by The New York Times and Broadway World, “OFF the TOP!” is not just a show; it's an experience. With the support of the bravest band in show business, Kravits delivers a performance that blurs the lines between music, comedy, improv, cabaret, and illusion. It's a concoction of entertainment that promises to leave audiences both mesmerized and roaring with laughter.
Renowned worldwide for his work on television (Taxi, Who's the Boss), Broadway (Honeymoon in Vegas, The Producers), Tony Danza has also been a fixture on the cabaret scene with his critically acclaimed show "Tony Danza: Standards and Stories." His latest creation, "Tony Danza: Sinatra and Stories" will debut at the Café Carlyle in New York City this fall.
