Tony nominee Malcolm Gets is set to make his 54 Below debut on July 27! Trained as a classical pianist, Gets' path was hijacked by his parents' original Broadway cast albums. Come a Little Closer is a celebration of the music that matters most to Gets… Rodgers and Hammerstein, Irving Berlin, Jule Styne, Cole Porter, James Taylor… he MIGHT sing something written in this century, but most likely not. Broadway has embraced Malcolm in shows like Amour, The Story of My Life, andMacbeth, while television & film audiences fondly remember him fromCaroline in the City, Grey Gardens, The Good Wife & Blue Bloods, among many others. We've got Malcolm at 54 for one night only. BroadwayWorld brings you preview photos of Gets in action below!
