Photo Coverage: Tony Danza Debuts STANDARDS & STORIES at Feinstein's/54 Below
Beloved stage and screen star Tony Danza (TV's "Taxi" & "Who's The Boss"; Broadway's Honeymoon In Vegas) and his band made their first of 6 performances at Feinstein's/54 Below last night and BroadwayWorld was there. Tony Danza: Standards & Stories will play six performances only: July 26, 27, August 9, September 8 & 9 at 7pm and August 10 at 9:30pm.
Tony Danza: Standards & Stories is a cabaret act combining timeless music with wit, storytelling, and the undeniable charm that has made Danza a beloved star of stage and screen around the world. Accompanied by a four-piece band, Danza will perform a selection of his favorite standards from the Great American Songbook, as well as numbers from his recent star turn in the critically-acclaimed Broadway musical Honeymoon in Vegas, while interweaving stories about his life and personal connection to the music. Tony debuted Standards & Stories last year to a sold out audience at the world famous Carlyle Hotel, with The New York Times calling him "a live wire who tap-dances, plays the ukulele, tells stories and radiates irresistible charm."
"I've always loved seeing shows at Feinstein's/54 Below, and I'm very excited to perform there myself," Danza said. "Nothing beats playing in New York.
