The Hartford Symphony Orchestra has regularly turned to Broadway musicals for its concert content. On May 19 at 7:30 p.m. in The Bushnell’s Mortensen Hall, the affectionate topic is “Love on Broadway.” The guest vocalists are three sets of married couples, all of whom have appeared in Broadway shows.
The co-starring couples are Rebecca Covington Webber (“Beautiful: The Carole King Musical,” whom you’ll also recognize from the just-finished Long Wharf run of “Crowns”); and Donald E. Webber Jr. (who has played Alexander Hamilton, among other roles, in “Hamilton” on Broadway); Juliette Trafton (the off-Broadway revival of “The Fantasticks”) and Stephen Trafton (“Les Miserables”); and Liz Larsen (“Beautiful,” “Hairspray”) and Sal Viviano (“The Full Monty”).
“Love on Broadway” is a concert of love songs. The HSO is planning to play selections from “West Side Story,” “Once,” “Phantom of the Opera,” “Wicked” and other romantic musicals.
