Felciano will offer an evening of original tunes as well as "uniquely reinvented covers." Peter Foley will be the musical director for the 7 PM concert, which will also feature surprise guest appearances.

Manoel Felciano has been seen on Broadway in Sweeney Todd, Brooklyn, Jesus Christ Superstar and Cabaret as well as in the national tours of Saturday Night Fever and Whistle Down the Wind. His Off-Broadway credits include Shockheaded Peter and Much Ado About Nothing.
