Broadway singing actor James Barbour will return to Sardi's next month for his annual holiday season.

Performances are scheduled for Dec. 6-8 at 9 PM. Jeremy Roberts is musical director.

The evenings, according to press notes, will "weave the magical music of the Holidays with some of the most electrifying Broadway ballads ever written." Attendees can also expect to hear tunes from Barbour’s CD, “Bring Me Giants."

A Kindle Fire will be presented each night to an "unsuspecting patron."

Laughing Dog Media, which will present the concerts, is also planning a series of interviews, hosted by Barbour, which will feature film and theatre luminaries interviewing their peers, co-stars, directors and  producers. The interview series, which will follow the holiday concerts, will be filmed and recorded for global television and radio audiences with a portion of the proceeds benefiting Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

James Barbour starred on Broadway in A Tale Of Two Cities (Sydney Carton), for which he was nominated for Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Drama League Awards for Best Actor; Carousel (Billy Bigelow); Jane Eyre (Rochester, Drama League Award nomination); Beauty and The Beast (Beast); Urinetown (Lockstock); Assassins (Czolgosz); and Cyrano The Musical.

Sardi's is located at 234 West 44th Street. Tickets are priced $25, $45 and $65. For reservations visit www.SmatTix.com or call (212) 221-8440.
