This All-Male 'Cell Block Tango' From 'Broadway Backwards' Will Leave You Breathless
This stunning, all-male twist on the “Cell Block Tango” number from the classic musical “Chicago” needs to be seen to be believed.
Hunky performers Joshua Buscher-West, Marty Lawson, Alfie Parker Jr., Waldemar Quinones-Villanueva, Alex Ringler and Ryan Steele tackled the delightfully dark showstopper at “Broadway Backwards,” held March 9 at New York’s Al Hirschfeld Theatre. As its name implies, the event is an annual celebration where gays and lesbians see their stories told through the great songs of musical theater, sung by their favorite Broadway stars.
Collectively, the group’s macho take on the Bob Fosse moves is just as memorable — and steamy — as the original “Chicago” number seen on Broadway and in the Oscar-winning 2002 film version.
This year’s event raised a record $466,717 for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (BCEFA) and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center.
