Brian D'Arcy James to Perform at Steppenwolf in December

Steppenwolf Theatre Company and Mark Cortale are pleased to announce two lively musical performances with five-time Tony Award nominee Brian d'Arcy James on Saturday, December 7, 2024 (3 pm & 7:30 pm) in Steppenwolf's Downstairs Theater, 1650 N. Halsted St. in Chicago.

James will perform songs from the classic American songbook, pop favorites and of course the Broadway canon, including signature songs he originated from shows such as Hamilton, Shrek the Musical, Wild Party and Days of Wine and Roses, to name a few. Not only will this Broadway vet and Northwestern alum perform the music you know and love, but you'll also learn what these songs mean to him in an intimate and personal evening of story and song.
