Back by popular demand! Join two-time Tony Award® winner Norbert Leo Butz (Big Fish, Catch Me If You Can, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Wicked, The Last 5 Years) for this intimate set of tunes inspired by seven months of isolation in Vancouver, British Columbia, while filming the NBC series “Debris” during the height of the pandemic.
In this, Norbert’s third original show at 54 Below, the actor and singer sings songs of alienation and anxiety, hope and transformation, and the healing power of a perfectly written pop song. Sans his usual band, the evening features Norbert playing all his own arrangements, on piano and guitar, of some of pop and rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest all time songwriters, including Bruce Springsteen, Dolly Parton, Peter Gabriel, Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell, and Fleetwood Mac, to name a few. Each night will feature a duet with surprise special guests.
Featuring:
John Shannon (Time was a Lie, Songs of the Desert River) on Oct 28 only
Tony Award® nominee Kate Baldwin (Big Fish, Finian’s Rainbow, Hello, Dolly!) on Oct 30 only
Catherine Porter (recording artist) on Nov 5 only
and more stars to be announced!
