Christopher Jackson and Mandy Gonzalez On Their Own: Sunday Song


A proud member of the Broadway Inspirational Voices Mandy Gonzalez made her Broadway in the Elton John musical Aida. She appeared in the musical Lennon, based on the life of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and she also starred opposite Michael Crawford as Sarah in Dance of the Vampires. Mandy was best known for her OBIE Award-winning performance in the Off-Broadway production of Eli's Comin', the musical based on the lyrics and music of songwriter Laura Nyro until now.



"I would love to be Maria in West Side Story, just because it's such a great, great part. There are a lot of things in that show that explain why I'm here, and why I fell in love with musicals..." Well, she may not be Maria as this is being written, but Mandy is tearin’ up In the Heights as Nina. That she and co-star Christopher Jackson will be gracing the stage to perform Burt Bacharach’s "On My Own" for Bacharach to the Future is indeed another magic moment to look forward to.
