The Legendary Name of Broadway in İstanbul! – with a full orchestra
30 May, 2015 – 1 June, 2015 – Zorlu Center PSM
Even though “Hugh Jackman – An Evening with Hugh Jackman” may be a set performance, it is in effect a concert that also contains improvisations. Hugh Jackman is a Tony-Award-winning actor renown the world over, most notably by his roles in movies such as ”Wolverine”, ”X-Men”, ”Les Misérables” and ”Real Steel.” Yet, in this one-man show, it is his talent in song and dance that the Australian artist puts on full display before our very eyes. Jackman is accompanied by dancers and an orchestra of thirty two pieces during the performance.
The show features various segments, including tributes to classic movie musicals like ”Singin’ in the Rain” and ”Guys and Dolls” as well as odes to the Aborigine culture of Jackman’s native Australia and Peter Allen, the Australian composer Jackman earned a Tony Award for playing in The Boy From Oz. Jackman improvises often throughout the show. His charming interactions keep things fresh and funny.
