Department of Music to present a Broadway Cabaret

On Saturday following the Homecoming Game, at 7:30 p.m. and repeated at 10 p.m., the Department of Music will present a Broadway Cabaret in the Jomie Jazz Forum. Admission is free.

Singers of Marshall University Opera Theatre perform old and new favorites led by pianist and director Bruce Rous, adjunct professor in the Department of Music. A veteran of Marshall Opera Theatre, Rous enjoyed a career in New York as pianist and musical director following graduation. His Broadway credits include Grease and Peter Pan, Off-Broadway shows, and national tours of popular shows including CATS. Most recently he was musical director of Huntington’s ARTS production of Hello Dolly. He currently can be found at his alma mater teaching music theory, music appreciation, and sharing his experiences with Marshall’s singers from Broadway to grand opera.
 
Featured in past Marshall University musicals and opera productions, these talented singers are sure to delight. So let the Homecoming celebration continue… Join alumni and students for a performance of Broadway favorites in the intimate club setting of the Jomie Jazz Forum. Because seating is limited, there will be two performances… for the “early birds and the night owls.”
