GEORGE M COHAN TONIGHT!
Telling the incredible story of one of the pioneers of modern musical theatre,
George M. Cohan Tonight! arrives at The New Players Theatre for a strictly
limited four week run.
Known in America as The Man Who Owned Broadway, Cohan was much more than your
average entertainer. As a performer, producer, composer, director, and writer,
he was responsible for penning over 50 shows and 500 songs. This award-winning
musical biography is written by Chip Deffaa, a song-writer and jazz historian.
Deffaa has written about jazz, cabaret, and theatre in The New York Post for
over eighteen years. George. M Cohan Tonight! is one of six shows he has written
depicting the life and music of the theatrical legend.
Featuring the songs: Hello Broadway, The Yankee Doodle Boy, Forty-five Minutes
From Broadway, Over There (as featured in Oh! What a Lovely War), Life’s A Funny
Proposition After All, Give My Regards to Broadway, and many more!
David Herzog stepped into Cohan’s influential shoes in July to star in the
American production in New Orleans, before returning to Britain to portray Cohan
in the West End. Herzog is choreographed by Derek Hartley, one of Britain’s
leading tap dancers, and directed by Bart Williams.
Come along and see why to this day, George M. Cohan remains the only actor ever
to have received a Congressional Gold Medal or to have a statue on Broadway.
