The tribute will include performances by Lee Roy Reams (42nd Street), Emily Skinner (Side Show), Robert Cuccioli (Jekyll & Hyde), Jim Caruso (Liza Minnelli's at The Palace), Stephen Bogardus (Falsettos) and more.
Among the nearly 90 works he brought to Broadway during his nearly five-decade-long career were Gypsy, Oliver!, Hello, Dolly!, 42nd Street, Mack & Mabel, I Do! I Do! and more. In addition to backing some of the longest-running and most beloved shows in American musical theater history, Merrick also helped launch the careers of singer/actress Barbra Streisand, writer/actor Woody Allen, and countless others, and his productions gave some of Broadway's grand dames and leading men their signature roles.
