Reprise Theatre Company will present Barry Manilow in Concert as its annual gala performance, to be held at UCLA’s Royce Hall on Tuesday, March 22 at 8pm. Reprise will also honor Manilow with a special award for his contributions to the field of musical theatre.

Manilow’s Broadway credits include his Tony Award-winning Barry Manilow on Broadway and Barry Manilow at the Gershwin. He also contributed songs to Bette Midler’s Clams on the Half Shell Revue and The Madwoman of Central Park West. In the West End, his music was featured in Barry Manilow’s Copacabana – The Musical, which went on to tour the U.S., Australia and Asia. He currently performs a regular gig at Paris Las Vegas.

Manilow has worked on over 40 albums over the course of his career as a singer, songwriter, arranger and producer. His worldwide record sales exceed 80 million, with no less than 25 consecutive top 40 hits to his credit between 1975 and 1983, on the Billboard Hot 100. His most recent release is the Grammy-nominated The Greatest Love Songs of All Time.

Ticket sales from the gala event will support Reprise’s musical productions, as well as its education and outreach programs.
