Danza and his four-piece band will perform their hit show, Tony Danza: Standards & Stories, along with The Nassau Pops Symphony Orchestra at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 15 at The Tilles Center for the Performing Arts in Old Brookville, NY. This performance is a benefit concert for Cerebral Palsy of Nassau County and will be sponsored by Jovia Financial Credit Union. All ticket proceeds will be donated to the charity.
Combining timeless music with wit, charm, storytelling, and a dash of soft shoe and ukulele performances, Tony Danza, his band, and The Nassau Pops Symphony Orchestra will perform a selection of Danza’s favorite standards from the “Great American Songbook” while interweaving stories about his life and personal connection to the music.
The live show has entertained audiences around the country with The New York Times raving “Tony’s a live wire who tap-dances, plays the ukulele, tells stories and radiates irresistible charm…he exudes the kind of charisma that can’t be taught!” Broadway World said, “His voice and showmanship is a welcome reminder of why the standards are just that—because they’re timeless. The man has true stage presence like we don’t see anymore. His singing voice is on par with any of the great performers of yesteryear or any year. Seeing Tony Danza on stage in your lifetime is a must,” said Scott Spears of WWGH Radio.
Danza has been one of the worlds most beloved and iconic entertainers for over 40 years, starring in two of television’s most cherished and long-running series, Taxi and Who’s The Boss, and in hit films such as Angels In Outfield, She’s Out of Control, Hollywood Knights, and Don Jon. Well established as a song and dance man, he has also starred on Broadway in The Producers, A View from the Bridge, and received rave reviews for his performance in the Broadway musical comedy, Honeymoon in Vegas.
Danza, who grew up on Long Island and attended Malverne High School, most recently starred in the Hulu original film, Darby and the Dead, Power Book III: Raising Kanan on Starz, the Netflix series The Good Cop, There’s Johnny on Hulu, the animated feature, Rumble, for Paramount, and And Just Like That, the sequel to Sex In The City, on HBO Max.
