    Exposé Is Still Changing the Seasons!

    Few groups captured the sound, style, and energy of late-’80s and early-’90s pop quite like Exposé. With Jeanette Jurado, Gioia Bruno, and Ann Curless, the groundbreaking trio became one of the defining female groups of the era, blending pop, dance, freestyle, and powerhouse vocals into a sound that helped shape a generation. Their debut album, Exposure, became a massive success and made Billboard history when Exposé became the first group to score four Top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 from a debut album. What followed was a remarkable run on the charts, millions of records sold, international success, and a catalog that remains part of the soundtrack of an entire era. Decades later, Jeanette, Gioia, and Ann continue to perform together, bringing that unmistakable Exposé energy to audiences around the country — and proving that their bond, their voices, and their place in pop history have endured. Now Exposé joins Robert Bannon on The Roundtable to talk about their incredible journey, surviving and evolving in the music business, the legacy they created together, and what it means to still share the stage all these years later. Exposé performs Saturday, September 19 at 8 PM at Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel in Detroit.

    Bill Russell is STILL, BILL Here On The Roundtable With Robert Bannon!

    What a life. What a career. And OH, does he have stories! Two-time Tony Award nominee Bill Russell — the brilliant writer behind Side Show, Pageant, Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens and so much more — joins The Roundtable to talk about his brand-new memoir, Still, Bill: Gay Adventures From Cowboyland to Broadway. From growing up an effeminate gay kid in the Black Hills of South Dakota surrounded by cattle, guns, sports and church… to finding his way to Broadway and the West End, Bill has lived a LIFE. We talk about the shows, the people, the heartbreaks, the laughs, being gay then and now, and the wild road that got him here. This one is Broadway history, queer history, and a whole lot of fun with a man who has spent decades telling our stories. Bill Russell is still here. Still creating. Still telling the truth. And yes — he is STILL, BILL! ❤️🌈 For more info, go to RobertBannon.com and follow Robert on IG @RobertMBannon. #BillRussell #StillBill #SideShow #Broadway #MusicalTheatre #QueerBroadway #LGBTQ #TheRoundtable #RobertBannon #BroadwayWorld Learn more about your ad choices.

    MATT COPLEY IS BROADWAY PUNK! 🤘🎭

    What happens when Broadway gets louder, heavier, and a whole lot more punk? Matt Copley is about to show us! The Michigan-based recording artist, theatrical producer, and creator behind the viral Broadway Does Punk series is taking the phenomenon from your screen to the stage for the first time ever! Copley has built a massive following by taking songs from shows like Wicked, The Phantom of the Opera, The Greatest Showman and more and completely reinventing them as full-throttle pop-punk and rock anthems. His interpretations have generated more than 16 million Spotify streams and hundreds of thousands of followers. Now, Broadway Does Punk LIVE hits New York City’s Abrons Arts Center October 2–3 for a limited run featuring a full-band, full-production rock experience. As the show describes it: a stage built like a Broadway musical — and a Broadway musical built like a concert. Matt joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon to talk about turning Broadway favorites upside down, building Broadway Does Punk into a viral sensation, his rock roots, taking the project LIVE, and why musical theatre sounds pretty damn good with some distortion behind it! If you love Broadway AND rock & roll, this one's for you.

    John Pagano & Adrian Galante Are “Going Bacharach”

    What the world needs now… is a little more Burt Bacharach! On this episode of The Roundtable with Robert Bannon, we are celebrating one of the greatest songbooks in American music with John Pagano and Adrian Galante from the acclaimed musical revue Going Bacharach: The Songs of an Icon. John Pagano has a connection to this music that very few people can claim. For 26 years, he was the featured male vocalist in Burt Bacharach’s touring band, traveling the world and performing alongside the legendary composer. Bacharach became more than a collaborator — he was Pagano’s mentor and friend. John joins us to share memories of the man behind the music and what it means to continue singing these songs today. Then there is Adrian Galante, the brilliant Australian pianist, clarinetist, arranger and musical director helping introduce Bacharach’s music to a whole new generation. Galante co-created Going Bacharach and created the show’s arrangements and orchestrations, finding fresh ways into classics we have known and loved for decades. And what songs they are: “Walk On By,” “Alfie,” “I Say a Little Prayer,” “(They Long to Be) Close to You,” “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?,” “A House Is Not a Home,” “That’s What Friends Are For,” “What the World Needs Now Is Love” and so many more. Going Bacharach brings three powerhouse vocalists together with a five-piece band for a musical journey through Bacharach’s extraordinary career. After acclaimed engagements in New York and Chicago, the show returns Off-Broadway this fall at the Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater, beginning September 9. We talk about Burt, the stories behind the music, John’s decades performing alongside him, Adrian’s fresh arrangements, and why these songs still sound unlike anything else ever written. This one is for the music lovers.
