Tony Award nominee Melissa Errico, who has traveled the U.S. with her concert tours, most recently in a sold-out engagement of her Melissa Errico Sings Sondheim show at Feinstein’s/54 Below in New York City, will cross the Atlantic to make her London solo debut with the Stephen Sondheim concert February 23–26 at the nightclub Crazy Coqs at Live at Zédel.
The star of Broadway’s Amour (Tony Award nomination); High Society; Dracula, the Musical; My Fair Lady; and Irving Berlin’s White Christmas also has appeared Off-Broadway in Do I Hear a Waltz?, Passion and several encore engagements of the Irish Rep’s Finian’s Rainbow.
“Going to London with this show is a dream come true for me,“ Errico told Playbill. “Sondheim is truly a New Yorker—but over the years, in revues and revivals, London has shown that it loves him as much as we do. There’s something about his complicated humor and unequaled soulfulness that resonates on the British stage. I hope we have a fine time sharing Sondheims.”
The concert will include “classics and curios” from Sondheim’s shows Into the Woods, Follies, Sweeney Todd, Anyone Can Whistle, Company, A Little Night Music, plus songs from other shows she has starred in. Robbie Rozelle will direct and Tedd Firth will serve as music director.
