Tony and Grammy Award-winning original star of Jersey Boys on Broadway and the Clint Eastwood-directed Warner Bros film, John Lloyd Young, brings a thrilling set of Broadway and West End showstoppers to the Crazy Coqs from 2-4 July.

Along with behind-the-scenes stories from his years in the Broadway and Hollywood trenches, Young sings the classics that helped shape his own showbiz aspirations: songs from Jersey Boys, The Wiz, Chicago, Bye Bye Birdie, Les Miserables, and more, with musical direction by Zoe Carole.

Young is the only American actor to date to have received all four major Lead Actor honors in a Broadway musical: the Tony, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, and Theatre World Award.

For the opening night of John Lloyd Young’s run on 2 July, following his set and after a short interval, he will be joined on stage by writer and broadcaster Edward Seckerson in conversation. Formerly chief classical music critic of The Independent, Edward Seckerson is a writer, broadcaster, podcaster, and musical theatre aficionado. He wrote and presented the long-running BBC Radio 3 series “Stage & Screen,” in which he interviewed many of the biggest names in the business – among them Julie Andrews, Angela Lansbury, Liza Minnelli, Stephen Sondheim, and Andrew Lloyd Webber.
