Under the Baton of Maestro Steven Reineke, Lewis will perform with the Pops with a program celebrating the return of Broadway and Live Theater. You can expect Norm to perform many songs from his unforgettable career on the Great Bright Way including Les Miserables, Sweeney Todd, The Gershwins’ Porgy and Bess, and of course The Phantom of the Opera (where he became the first African American actor to star as the title role in the Broadway company).
