Lee Roy Reams first met Jerry Herman when he was cast as Cornelius Hackl in Carol Channing’s first Broadway revival of Hello, Dolly!. It was the beginning of a beautiful professional and personal friendship that lasted Jerry’s lifetime. He directed many stars in Hello, Dolly! and directed Carol’s last Broadway revival and appeared as Cornelius in her last performance. Jerry personally chose Lee Roy to be the last Albin/Zaza in Broadway’s La Cage aux Folles. They appeared on Broadway in An Evening with Jerry Herman and recorded a CD for Applause Records after a successful engagement at Rainbow and Stars titled An Evening with Jerry Herman At Rainbow and Stars. Lee Roy was also part of Jerry Herman at the Hollywood Bowl. Jerry always chose Lee Roy to be his soloist when he made personal appearances. Lee Roy has put these decades of their partnership into a cabaret show at 54 Below showcasing all of Jerry’s Broadway songs and private stories of their friendship. Not to be missed!
