Willy Falk BIO

Willy Falk is a talented actor and singer who has made a name for himself both on and off Broadway. Born in New York City in 1958, Falk grew up with a love of music and theater, and began performing at a young age. He attended the High School of Performing Arts in New York, and later studied at the Juilliard School.
Falk's first major role on Broadway came in 1984, when he was cast as Chris in the original production of the hit musical "Miss Saigon." The show was a huge success, and Falk's performance earned him critical acclaim. He went on to appear in several other Broadway productions, including "Les Miserables," "The Phantom of the Opera," and "Aida."
In addition to his work on stage, Falk has also had a successful career in television and film. He has appeared in several popular TV shows, including "Law & Order," "The Sopranos," and "Blue Bloods." He has also appeared in several films, including "The Freshman" and "The Last Days of Disco."
Despite his success in other areas, Falk has always remained committed to the theater. He has worked extensively as a director and producer, and has also written several plays and musicals. In 2006, he directed a production of "The Last Five Years" at the George Street Playhouse in New Jersey, which was a critical and commercial success.
Falk's most recent work includes a role in the musical "The Bridges of Madison County," which premiered on Broadway in 2014. The show, which was based on the novel by Robert James Waller, received mixed reviews, but Falk's performance was widely praised. He played the role of Bud, the husband of the main character, Francesca.
In addition to his work on stage and screen, Falk is also an accomplished singer. He has released several albums over the years, including "Willy Falk Sings Stephen Sondheim" and "Willy Falk Live at the Metropolitan Room." He has also performed in several cabaret shows, and has been a frequent guest on the popular radio program "Live from the Algonquin."
Throughout his career, Falk has been recognized for his talent and dedication to the arts. He has received several awards and nominations for his work, including a Drama Desk Award for his performance in "Miss Saigon" and a Tony Award nomination for his work in "Aida." He has also been a vocal advocate for the arts, and has worked with several organizations to promote theater education and support emerging artists.

BWW Interview: Robert Lamont Talks About TIN PAN ALLEY DAY and The Birth of America's Music Industry

This coming Saturday, October 23 is officially Tin Pan Alley Day in NYC. As a physical destination, Tin Pan Alley is five buildings at 47-55 W. 28th St. near the Flatiron building in the neighborhood called “NoMad,” north of Madison Square Park. But Tin Pan Alley is much more than a physical destination. It is a state of mind. It is the spot where the American music industry was born. From the 1890s to around 1910, this block of publishing houses and agent’s offices was where you went if you had written a song that you wanted the world to hear it. Many of our most illustrious Broadway composers got their start plugging songs in the offices of Tin Pan Alley including Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, and Jerome Kern.
