WOODSTOCK — Tim and Mackenzie Deary will reprise the Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion’s famous duet, “The Prayer” in the Broadway Live’s upcoming show, The Conncert April 7 and 8.
The Conncert performances will be performed at the Center for The Arts at The Woodstock Academy. For more details and ticket information can be found at www.theconncert.com.
Having performed in numerous Broadway Live musical productions over the past 18 years, Tim and Mackenzie are no strangers to the stage. Most recently Tim performed in “Broadway Live … 2015” where he sang “Run Freedom Run” from the Broadway musical “Urinetown” among other hits. As a French teacher at Pomfret School in Pomfret, he continues to use the stage as an outlet to express his love of culture, life and music.
Mackenzie Deary recently completed her master’s degree in public policy at the University College London. She has been involved in musical theater since her debut as Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol at the young age of 5. “It is an honor to once again be performing “The Prayer” alongside my brother, Tim, because the song has such a deeply profound significance to our entire Deary family,” said Mackenzie.
Executive Co-Producer David T. Panteleakos said, “We are thrilled that Tim and Mackenzie are appearing in this benefit concert for the YMCA. They are both very talented and gifted performers; and the fact that they are bringing ‘The Prayer’ back to the Broadway Live stage is a real treat.”
