This year’s “Rockers on Broadway,” which will salute Motown, will be held on TONIGHT at 8PM at BB King Blues Club & Grill!

Jersey Boys stars Travis Cloer, Kris Coleman, Christian Hoff, Donnie Kehr, Michael Longoria, Dominic Nolfi, Daniel Reichard, and Bobby Spencer will be performing at this year’s benefit!!

“Rockers on Broadway” was founded by Donnie Kehr in 1993 during the Broadway run of The Who’s Tommy. ‘Broadway Rockers’ was inspired by Pete Townshend, who wanted to give musical theatre performers the opportunity to experience the feeling of singing with a rock band in a concert style venue, so they could understand and transfer the rawness of that edge to the stage.

All proceeds from the event will go to support Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and Wingspan Arts Inc. Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids gives assistance nationwide to persons living with HIV/AIDS and Breast Cancer. Wingspan Arts provides In-school/Afterschool/Conservatory arts education programs to Tri-state area children.

  2. We are looking forward to this years Rockers event.
    We have been attending for the last couple of years
    and enjoy this show very much. It gives everyone a chance to see the Broadway Actors perform songs they wouldn’t normally perform on a Broadway Stage and you really get to see just how talented these folks really are. This is a Great show for a Great Cause and we will be attending.

    I will miss Tituss Burgess not performing this year. Last year he brought the house down when he sang “River Deep Mountain High” one of my favorite songs.

    Can’t wait to see what this years performers are doing. I know its all Motown so it should be fun and one big party!
