The 2021 concert preceded the acclaimed Off-Broadway staging of Creel's musical inspired by his time wandering the collections at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The two-time Tony recipient will reprise some of his most loved numbers from The Boy From Oz, The Greatest Showman, and more in From New York, With Love.
Performing material by Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar, Carole King, and more, the one-night-only concert aims to empower, inspire, and uplift the ferocity of women.
