Susan Egan to Perform in THE BELLE OF BROADWAY Cabaret

Tony-nominated actress, singer, dancer and entertainment legend Susan Egan will bring a one-night performance to Middle Tennessee with Studio Tenn Theatre Company's fall benefit cabaret, “The Belle of Broadway,” on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at 7 p.m. in Turner Theater at The Factory at Franklin. Limited tickets go on sale October 8, 2026 for this intimate evening of music.  

Widely known from her role as Broadway's original Belle in Disney's Beauty and the Beast and the voice of Meg in the animated Hercules, Egan has headlined five Broadway shows and hundreds of concerts worldwide, voiced iconic animated characters on film and television, and produced live entertainment across five continents. Her appearance comes on the heels of her induction into the 2026 class of Disney Legends, alongside notable names such as Anne Hathaway, Bob Iger and Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Guests will listen to memorable songs from Egan's Broadway and Disney career, along with special behind-the-scenes stories from her times on stage and screen. The Turner Theater will be transformed into an elegant cabaret with intimate table settings and traditional theater seating. Guests can reserve a premium VIP table experience, including onstage seating, a bottle of bubbly, sweet treats, and special surprises, by calling the Studio Tenn box office. An exclusive VIP meet-and-greet with Egan is also available as an add-on for the first 50 ticket purchasers.

“Egan's voice has touched people worldwide, from her nostalgic songs and iconic lines to her extraordinary Broadway performances,” said Patrick Cassidy, artistic director for Studio Tenn. “It's special to bring an artist of her stature to our local audience, continuing our mission to bring world-class theatre and talent to Middle Tennessee. Egan isn't coming as a national artist on tour; she is a member of our community choosing to support its professional theatre because of the importance of local art and expression.”

Egan will be joined on stage by her talented friends Adam J. Levy, Lauren Paley, and Music Director Ming Aldrich-Gan. Levy was most recently seen on Broadway in Moulin Rouge and in the first national tour of Waitress. His career spans theater, television, and concert performance; he has headlined with renowned symphony orchestras across the United States. Paley is a singer and lifestyle content creator with a background in musical theater from The Boston Conservatory. She first gained recognition as the “Stairwell Siren” on social media and has grown to over 15 million followers across social platforms. Returning for the second year as Studio Tenn's fall cabaret music director, Aldrich-Gan is a pianist, music director, and arranger based in New York and Nashville. He has played 14 Broadway shows and several national tours, including Hamilton, Aladdin and Wicked. These musical powerhouses promise a night of unforgettable music and hilarious, heartfelt stories. 

Currently, Levy and Egan are partners through their company 10th & Main Productions, where they create and produce live events. They've worked closely with Disney Concerts, and in 2020 they developed the first Disney concert in Franklin; they've since produced over 200 concerts for Disney worldwide.
