“A Beautiful Noise” has announced a one-night-only special event: “Nick at Nite: Nick Fradiani Sings More Neil.” Featuring Nick Fradiani, who currently stars as “Neil Diamond – Then” in the Neil Diamond bio-musical, the concert will take place immediately following the 7 p.m. performance on Feb. 6. Amber Ardolino, who currently plays Diamond’s second wife, Marcia Murphey, will also appear.
The concert will showcase Diamond songs that are not included in the musical.
“Neil had over 50 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100. At the stage door, so many people ask about their favorite song, and while ‘A Beautiful Noise’ is packed with hits, the creators had to leave some songs out,” Fradiani explained in a statement. “This is our chance to celebrate even more of his classic tunes.”
Fradiani is the 2015 winner of the reality singing competition “American Idol.” He played the role of Lorenzo in “A Bronx Tale The Musical” on tour, before making his Main Stem debut in “A Beautiful Noise.” He took over the role of “Neil – Then” full time in October 2023, having served as the alternate for the role since the musical’s opening on Dec. 4, 2022.
“A Beautiful Noise” is produced by Ken Davenport and Bob Gaudio.
