Feinstein’s/54 Below, Broadway’s Supper Club presents Daniel Koek’s West End story on July 19th at 7pm.
Daniel Koek is an international artist who has made a name for himself in London’s West End, as well as Australia and some of he greatest theaters in Europe.
After 180 theatres, 7 leading ladies and a rather worn suitcase, acclaimed tenor Daniel Koek is here at Feinstein’s/54 Below to present an enthralling evening of songs and stories from the last decade.
Life has been hectic recently for Daniel, whilst performing leading roles in some of the world’s biggest productions including West Side Story, Chess and South Pacific. Daniel had made his way through 9 grueling auditions to be awarded the Iconic role of Jean Valjean in the West End production of Les Misérables, and at 32 this made him one of the youngest men to have played the part. To much anticipation he also has just recorded his second studio album HiGH.
An evening not to be missed, Daniel’s show charts his transformation from SA Opera’s Young Artist 2003 to one of Australia and the UK’s best leading men. A sung through timeline of Dan’s career highlighting how a country boy with a big dream made it to the top!
Stay tuned for additional special guest announcements!
Megan Minutillo produces. Daniel J. Mertzlufft music directs.
