Obie Award winning actor and cabaret artist James Jackson, Jr. presents On Broadway at Chelsea Table + Stage on Monday, May 1 at 7 PM. Elliot Roth is music director, with special guest vocalist, Amy Lynn Hamlin. Direction is by Farah Alvin.
In a departure from the soul, R&B, and folk-focused cabaret work he is known for, Jackson brings his sense of story-telling and song interpretation to the Broadway music that has inspired him as an artist. James continues to ask “How do I fit into the story?” with music spanning Sondheim, LaChiusa, and Harold Arlen, and from such musicals as Pippin, Sunday in the Park with George, Grey Gardens and Purlie.
Jackson won an Obie Award-winner for his work in Michael R. Jackson’s Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning musical A Strange Loop, and currently starring in the playwright’s White Girl in Danger. He is also the co-host of the Broadway-themed podcast “5 Questions with James and JAM” with Tony nominee, John-Andrew Morrison.
