"THE CHOIR OF MAN is fun and celebratory - perfect for this summer," described Vernaci. "This 90-minute show without intermission will leave you wanting to continue the festivities on any one of the beautiful patios in the Playhouse Square District."

THE CHOIR OF MAN is a mug-smashing success from the creative minds of Andrew Kay - Soweto Gospel Choir, Noise Boys, Gobsmacked, and the award-winning North by Northwest, and Nic Doodson - The Magnets, Gobsmacked, and Noise Boys.

Creator, director and co-producer Nic Doodson stated, "THE CHOIR OF MAN has loved Cleveland since we first toured the states in 2018 so we are thrilled to sit down at Playhouse Square for a little while. For this run, the show will be even bigger and better because our nine lads will be joined onstage by a live band. Expect more energy, more music and more pints!"

Known across the globe as "the ultimate-feel good show," THE CHOIR OF MAN features a cast of world-class tap dancers, singers, and instrumentalists celebrating a range of popular artists and musical styles, from Paul Simon and Adele to Queen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Katy Perry and more. It's a party. It's a concert. It's a pint-filled good time set in a real, working pub that combines hair-raising harmonies, high-energy dance, and live percussion with foot-stomping choreography. The multi-talented cast of nine handsome blokes sings everything - pub tunes, folk, Broadway, classic rock - ensuring that there is something for everyone in this uplifting show.
