Desert Foothills Theater, a division of the Foothills Community Foundation, brings Sirius/XM radio’s Seth Rudetsky to Cactus Shadows Fine Arts Center, 33606 N 60th St., in Scottsdale, “Seth’s Big Fat Broadway Show” at 7:30 pm, Sunday, Oct. 25.
This special fundraising event features Rudetsky’s trademark “deconstructions,” in which he uses his audio/video collection to break down performances from Broadway divas such as Patti LuPone and Betty Buckley. He will also showcase mind-boggling videos such as The Osmonds singing a medley from “Fiddler on the Roof” and Cher performing all of “West Side Story.”
Meribeth Reeves, Desert Foothills Theater managing director, who attended Oberlin College with Rudetsky, says this is a rare chance to see the talented actor perform.
“Seth was nominated three times for an Emmy Award for his work as a comedy writer for ‘The Rosie O’Donnell Show,’ ” she says. “He has also worked as a writer for the Grammy and Tony Awards shows. Many of his shows have sold out, so get your tickets early.”
Tickets range from $45 to $60. For information, call 480-488-1981 or visit dftheater.org.
