WAKEFIELD, RI – In celebration of 90 years of Theatre By The Sea (TBTS), owner and producer Bill Hanney is thrilled to welcome back SiriusXM Radio’s Seth Rudetsky and his Broadway Concert Series featuring Tony® Award-winner Beth Leavel on Monday, July 31 at 7:30 pm for one show only.

SiriusXM radio host Seth Rudetsky is bringing his Broadway concert series to Rhode Island! He first appeared at Theatre By The Sea last season, (and his performance wound up winning the BroadwayWorld award!), and this season he’ll be teaming up with Tony® Award-winner Beth Leavel. 

 

The evening will be filled with intimate, hi-larious, behind-the-scenes stories mixed with incredible performances of the songs Leavel has performed on Broadway and beyond. 

The set list will have Leavel recreating showstopping performances from her unique Broadway career – from the worldwide sensation 42nd Street, to the Tony® Award winning revival of Showboat, to her Tony® Award winning performance in The Drowsy Chaperone!

 

Seth’s Broadway Concerts are always one-of-a-kind because they’re never fully planned in advance. In a past concert, Rudetsky asked how Ms. Leavel got her Broadway musical which involved auditioning with a complicated tap dance. 

 

Well, he finally ran to the piano, started vamping and Beth had no choice but to stand up and tap the whole thing…in high heels!

 

Who knows what will happen at Theatre By The Sea!

 

This spontaneous evening of captivating stories and hit songs will also feature Leavel recreating her triumphant performance in The Prom as well as giving theatregoers a sneak preview into her upcoming starring role in Elton John’s The Devil Wears Prada!  

 

This very special concert is a rare opportunity which should not be missed!

 

Seth Rudetsky’s Broadway Concert Series starring Beth Leavel and Seth Rudetsky will be at Theatre By The Sea on Monday, July 31, 2023 at 7:30 pm. The theatre is located at 364 Cards Pond Road, Wakefield.

Located on Rhode Island’s South Shore, Theatre By The Sea celebrates 90 years of summer theatre at its best!

 

Theatre By The Sea, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, has had many incarnations since opening on August 7, 1933. Tommy Brent saved the theatre from demolition in 1967 and ran it successfully until FourQuest Entertainment took over the lease in 1988. Following extensive renovations, FourQuest reopened the theatre in the spring of 1989 and continued producing high quality entertainment at the seaside playhouse until the fall of 2003.

 

Bill Hanney purchased the property in 2007 and, with producing partners, successfully mounted a production of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, just six weeks later, reopening the historic theatre on August 8, 2007. Since then, Theatre By The Sea has continued to produce a four-musical subscription season, a late-night cabaret series, a children’s theatre festival, and a children’s summer theatre camp
