  Returning to the Firehouse Arts Center by popular demand, Broadway Star David Burnham presents his celebrated one-man show. He will be performing songs from many of his past roles, along with favorite Broadway standards and selections from his popular solo CD recordings.

David Burnham is familiar to Broadway fans from having embodied the starring role of Fiyero in the Tony Award-nominated mega-hit musical Wicked. What fans may not know is that he also actually created and developed the role in the original Los Angeles production workshops. This guy is not just a fantastic voice and devilishly charming personality, he is in-demand for his collaborative and writing chops as well.

First gaining critical acclaim when he was chosen, after a two-year search, to replace Donny Osmond in the national tour of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat, Burnham had accepted the role after touring the U.S. as Peter opposite Ted Neeley in the national tour of Jesus Christ Superstar.

Burnham won the prestigious Helen Hayes Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Fabrizio Nacarelli in the National Tour of the 6-time Tony Award-winning musical The Light in the Piazza. As a member of the original Broadway cast, he performed on both the Tony Awards and Live from Lincoln Center telecasts. Last year he returned to NYC, starring in the new Off-Broadway show The Best is Yet to Come - The Music of Cy Coleman.

In addition to theater roles, David performs with symphonies all over the country, and yet still finds time to bring his solo concerts to intimate venues like the Firehouse Arts Center in North America and Europe.

This show is part of the Firehouse Arts Center's Cabaret Series, produced and presented by Esses Productions. The series concerts always sell out, so advance ticket purchase is recommended.
