The Broadway Boys

The Broadway Boys are possibly the hottest, under-the-radar powerhouse vocal group pulled directly from the Broadway's stages!

Here's the simple recipe for success: Take a bunch of uber-cute (duh!), extraordinarily enthusiastic, and suburbly talented male vocal powerhouses direct from the Great White Way; Place a half dozen of them on stage at any one time; Let them bring down the house with their often self-arranged, uniquely harmonized standards, Broadway show tunes, gospel inspired ballads, jazz rifts, and explosive rock and roll style. The result: a "Symphony of Sound" that fills your body and soul with pure joy.

These boys know how to put on a show! Jesse Nagar, who still performs today, is the original inspiration and talent behind the group. Rumor has it that the legendary Billy Porter is now also involved in the group. Numbering about 15 in total, you have to imagine that with talent such as this, any number of them are bound to have a "real" gig going on at any time - so they rotate in and out as necessary.

Each show contains a "guest appearance" - usually by a Broadway diva or two. Toss one or two of the boys back on stage in a duet or quartet and you have the spice that makes this hotter.

After 90 minutes of their brand of entertainment at the Zipper Factory - i am left with only two questions: When is the next show? When is the CD coming out?
