Mark William - Come Croon with Me!

​MARK WILLIAM: COME CROON WITH ME
Mark William hits the stage like a lighting bolt! Putting his own unique, youthful spin on golden age crooner styling, Mark performs a collection of timeless songs from Broadway and The Great American Songbook. With his glossy approach, he glides from Jerry Herman to Peter Allen to Henry Mancini with charismatic ease and a spring in his step. He hypnotizes with a set of enduring classics, filtered through Mark’s youthful perspective and talent set. The show is distinctly new-age romantic, yet still evocative of golden-age cinematic glamour. Mark is the winner of two Broadway World awards: Best Debut Act, and Best Independent Recording for his critically-acclaimed album, Mark William: Come Croon With Me, released by Yellow Sound Label. The recording was hailed as the “Album Of The Year” by Peter Filichia (Broadway Radio) and can be purchased on Amazon and streamed on all major services. 
 
At his numerous sold-out New York engagements, both critics and audiences alike have been over the moon for Mark William. Theater Pizzazz said, “He took my breath away with every note and nuance. Whatever that “it” is, he’s got IT!” and Times Square Chronicles calls him “The newest star rising in the heavens of cabaret and musical theatre.” Deb Miller of DC Metro Arts raved, “From his dazzling post-modern dinner jacket and bow tie to his suave vocals and debonair moves, the rising star puts his own new spin on the old favorites, giving them a fresh appeal for today’s audiences- A triple threat, indeed”.  Broadway legend Chita Rivera said of Mark, “WOW! What a voice! He has got it all!” And Tony-winning lyricist Lynn Ahrens even calls him “Baby Sinatra.”
 
Mark was named one of the top ten cabaret acts of 2018 by both Theater Pizzazz and Times Square Chronicles, and rang in 2019 headlining New Year’s Eve at New York’s famed McKittrick Hotel. He has appeared around the world in such shows as My Fair Lady, Mary Poppins, Mame with Leslie Uggams, and Jerry’s Girls with Susan Anton. Most recently, he was featured in the U.S. premiere of the newly revised Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein at The Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia. Prior to the pandemic, Mark debuted his act in the luxury cruise market, wowing audiences from around the world. Mark William: Come Croon With Me is directed by Preston and Richard Ridge.
