His show “MOSTLY BROADWAY,” will feature his signature blend of Broadway hits and original music.

The post-show reception for VIP ticket holders includes champagne, sweets and savories in The Rose Room (named in honor of actors and cabaret performers Amanda McBroom and George Ball).
The Hollywood Reporter writes “Burnham’s dazzling singing charms the pants off everyone in the audience…when he smiles, you could swear sunlight glints off his teeth.”
Burnham was last seen on Broadway in the mega-hit musical Wicked playing Fiyero, the role he originated in the developmental workshops of the show.
