A Tony Award-winning performer - and native son - will be performing in Huntington next month to usher in the holiday in style.
My pal Dave Lavender files this excellent story about the concert in the Herald-Dispatch - here's an excerpt:
----------------------
Everyone sings I'll be home for Christmas but not everybody can make it.
This Christmas, though, two-time Tony Award-winner Michael Cerveris can sing it for real as the Huntington native is rolling back to the Jewel City as a guest performer for the Huntington Symphony Orchestra's holiday concert that is set for 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 16 at the historic Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center.
The concert will feature the 55-member-strong HSO under the direction of maestro Kimo Furumoto as well as the 60-member choir, the Young Voices of St. Joseph Catholic School that is directed the Lara Donahoe.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the performance is at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are $15 for open seating in the balcony, and $40 and $45 for the main floor and loge (front of the balcony) seating.
Get tickets by calling 304-781-8343 or go online at www.huntingtonsymphony.org or stop by the office at 763 Third Avenue in Huntington.
Called "the most versatile leading man on Broadway" by Playbill, Cerveris won his first Tony for Best Featured Actor in a Musical for playing John Wilkes Booth in Stephen Sondheim's Assassins. He won his second Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for Fun Home in 2015 as Bruce Bechdel.
