Song List for Radio Broadway Concert on 6/30 Announced

The complete song list for Radio Broadway Presents "The Radio Hits of 1958," sponsored by BroadwayWorld.com, has been announced.  The show will feature a variety of Broadway stars, American Idol's Constantine Maroulis and alumni from American Bandstand and will be presented on Monday, June 30 at 8 p.m. at The Town Hall, Times Square's landmark concert venue.

Principal singers will include Max von Essen (Dance Of The Vampires, Jesus Christ Superstar, Les Miserables), Jennifer Hope Wills (The Phantom Of The Opera, Wonderful Town, The Woman In White), Nancy Anderson (Wonderful Town, A Class Act), John Treacy Egan (The Producers, Jekyll & Hyde, The Little Mermaid), and Lawrence Clayton (The Civil War, Jesus Christ Superstar, Dreamgirls).  The evening will be hosted by Raymond Jaramillo McLeod (Drama Desk Award nominee – Wonderful Town).

American Idol's Constantine Maroulis will be a special guest star.

Joining the cast are "The Radio Broadway Singers," consisting of Marissa Caro (National Tour of Ring of Fire), Dwayne Clark (B'way: Cry-Baby, Tarzan, Urinetown, Smokey Joe's Cafe), Jean Michelle Grier (The Lion King), Deb Lyons (B'way: Smokey Joe's Cafe; National Tour of Jekyll & Hyde) James Sasser (B'way: Riverdance) and Matty Stuart, and "The Radio Broadway Dancers," consisting of Elizabeth Daniels (Asian Tour of The Sound of Music), Daniel Gutierrez (National Tour of Chicago), Patrick O'Neill (National Tour of Oklahoma!), Melanie Waldron (National Tour of Chicago) and Tracey Zimmerman.  Also featured are David Weitzer, Allison Mosier, Bryan Jarrett, William Gilinsky and Charles Amann.

In a unique twist, the cast will be joined onstage by some of the most celebrated "regulars" and dance contest winners from The Philadelphia Years of American Bandstand, including Carmen Jimenez, Marlyn Brown Kernan, Diane Iaquinto Celotto, Eddie Kelly and the longest-reigning regular on the program (1956 to 1961), Joyce Shafer Roth.  These winners were, in effect, the American "idols" of their day and will be reunited onstage to perform alongside the stars of today.
