The Doo Wop Project, who brought the house down in their first State Theatre performance, will co-headline the show. PBS has televised the Doo Wop Project’s TV Concert all over the country, raising audience awareness of their unique talent. Like their live show, the concert special gave a taste of the unparalleled authentic sound and vocal excellence in the group’s recreation of the greatest American hits in pop and rock history. The Doo Wop Project consists of five Broadway stars from smash hit shows like Jersey Boys and Motown: The Musical. This supergroup of Broadway stars transforms hits from the classic and modern American pop songbook into unforgettable renditions of your favorite songs. The Doo Wop Project traces the evolution of the classic American Doo Wop sound with five guys singing tight street-corner harmonies (including songs by The Crests, The Belmonts, the Flamingos, and more). This musical journey includes the hit sounds of Motown (including The Temptations and Smokey Robinson) and classic East-Coast Pop royalty like Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons and Dion. Finally, we will experience “DooWopified” versions of hit songs by more recent stars such as Michael Jackson, Jason Mraz, Garth Brooks, Maroon 5, and more. Audiences will be moved to reminisce, and newer generations will marvel at classic golden Doo Wop sounds as well as versions of more recent hit songs.

Members of the Doo Wop Project include Dominic Nolfi, original Broadway cast of Jersey Boys, Motown: The Musical, and A Bronx Tale; Charl Brown, Tony^® Award nominee for his portrayal of Smokey Robinson in Motown: The Musical; Jersey Boys, Sister Act, and Hair;  Dwayne Cooper, Motown: The Musical, Hairspray, and Smokey Joe’s Café; Russell Fischer,  Jersey Boys, Big: The Musical; John Michael Dias, Jersey Boys, Beautiful: The Carol King Musical; and Sonny Paladino, Musical Director for Pippin, The Great Comet, The Last Ship, Billy Eliot, A Beautiful Noise, and The Wanderer.
