Featuring stars of Broadway’s smash hits Jersey Boys and Motown: The Musical, The Doo Wop Project recreates and re-imagines some of the greatest music in American pop and rock history.

This concert special traces the evolution of Doo Wop from the smooth sound of five guys singing tight harmonies on a street corner to the biggest hits on the radio today.

They’ll take you on a journey from foundational tunes from groups like the Belmonts and Flamingos through their influences on the sounds of Smokey Robinson and The Temptations, and all the way to “DooWopified” versions of modern artists like Jason Mraz and Maroon 5.
