TOMMY TUNE: HERE AND NOW

Dinner at 6:30, Show at 8pm.

"The Purple Room has a long standing tradition of featuring nationally-known entertainers," said Purple Room owner Michael Holmes. "So we are obviously thrilled to be bringing Tommy Tune to the Purple Room to open our 2016/2017 season."

Presented by veteran producer, Dick Taylor, Tommy Tune's one man show, TOMMY TUNE: HERE AND NOW, will include performances on Thursday, September 1st, Friday, September 2nd, and Saturday, September 3rd. Showtime is at 8pm, and with dinner reservations at 6:30pm. "Its one thing to see an artist of this caliber in a 1,200 seat auditorium," Taylor said, "but to have an opportunity to see him in an intimate supper club setting like the Purple Room - thats a rare opportunity!"

In TOMMY TUNE: HERE AND NOW!, Tommy Tune, Broadway's tallest tapper, takes to the stage dancing, singing and tale-telling, and leading the audience on an incredible autobiographical stroll. Celebrating 50 plus years of big time showmanship from his arrival in New York City as a fresh-faced kid from Texas, through his most popular roles on stage and screen, to his ascension as one of Broadways most accomplished director-choreographers, Tommy Tune delights the audience as only a true master performer can. Accompanied by Michael Biagi, his music director for nearly four decades, TOMMY TUNE: HERE AND NOW! features Tunes personal renditions of standards by Irving Berlin, Kurt Weill, Cole Porter, Johnny Mercer, Burt Bacharach, the Gershwins, Carole King, Green Day and more.
