In Married to Broadway, Ron and Barbra (together with one or two of their fabulous and equally talented Broadway leading actors and actresses) share their love affair with the great music of the Great White Way, performing the big showstopping numbers that are audience favorites around the world -- from Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Evita, and West Side Story, to Carousel, Fiddler on the Roof, and – of course – Les Miz. Depending on your budget, the show can be performed with a cast of from 3 to 5 vocalists (including Ron and Barbra), performing with tracks, piano accompaniment, or a band.
