If you had to pick a celebrity that exemplifies the history and entertainment eminence of Café Carlyle, Tony Danza, who just began his engagement ( May 2-6) in the legendary supper club would surely be high on your list.
Opening night of Tony Danza's 54 Below run was full of surprises, heart, Dad jokes and great music.
TONY DANZA STANDARDS & STORIES has guest reviewer Andrew Poretz praising his program.
His tux fits perfectly, sleeves just the right length so you can see the cuff links. Tony Danza is a guy with a personality and musical ability that wins you over from the first note he sings. Then he tells his stories and his jokes, which make you feel you would like to spend a week with him. That's a Tony Danza cabaret show, or to use a more authentic word, 'night club act'.
Occasionally in cabaret, one encounters a performer with 'star power.' Other times, one sees a legitimate star in a cabaret setting---say, Patti LuPone or Ben Vereen---and knows instantly why the person is a star. But in his Feinstein's/54 Below solo debut show, Tony Danza: Standards & Stories, Tony Danza reminds audiences what it means to be a star, onstage as well as off.
