Experience eight unforgettable performances over two consecutive weekends from 25 to 27 July and 1 to 3 August 2025. Here’s what you need to know.
My Favourite Broadway is a celebration of the best of Broadway
Jonathan Roxmouth is taking the spotlight in My Favourite Broadway – a celebration of his personal selection of showstopping hits from some of the world’s most beloved Broadway musicals.
From the haunting passion of The Phantom of the Opera to the revolutionary anthems of Les Misérables, the grandeur of Evita, and the romance of My Fair Lady — this is Broadway as you’ve never heard it before, interpreted by the voice that has captivated a nation.
Accompanied by the newly formed 32-piece Egoli Symphonic Orchestra under the baton of Maestro Adam Howard, this show not only marks a triumphant homecoming for Jonathan Roxmouth, but also reunites him with his fans who have followed his illustrious career from the stages of South Africa to international acclaim.
What’s in store for the anticipated Broadway event?
Jonathan Roxmouth, blending theatrical flair with rich orchestral arrangements and supported by the power and precision of the Egoli Symphonic Orchestra, bring new depth to classic show tunes and beloved musical theatre hits in a performance that promises elegance, emotion, and unforgettable moments.
Having last performed at Montecasino in Key Change Jonathan Roxmouth will be back at the piano to perform a special surprise with the orchestra, featuring songs from his best loved musicals including Singin’ in the Rain, Gypsy, Funny Girl, My Fair Lady and Oliver, just to mention a few.
“Having mostly been overseas since 2021, I have missed the South African audience very much. Not only their response but the way they generously welcome an artist on stage – it’s grown into a special relationship that I am looking forward to rekindling,” Jonathan says.
“I am beyond excited and so elated to be back performing some beautiful musical theatre material. Sharing songs from where it all began back in 2007 onwards.”
A year of homecoming for Jonathan Roxmouth
2025 marks a significant homecoming in the career of Jonathan Roxmouth. This celebrated performer will not only captivate musical theatre fans with his My Favourite Broadway concert performances; he also returns to musical theatre where he reprises the role of Billy Flynn — the slick, charismatic, and cunning lawyer — in CHICAGO – The Musical, running at Montecasino’s Teatro from 3 October to 9 November 2025.
